Drewery

The Noble tribe of Drewery represented here by Lord Stanley, Senescahl of Drewery. The vast movement of people that followed the Norman Conquest of England of 1066 brought the Drewery family name to the British Isles. They lived in Suffolk. This family was originally from Rouvray, Normandy, and it is from the local form of this placename, De Rouvray, which literally translates as from Rouvray.
