There was a Robert de DRIBY who had a son named John, but not our John [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 6/10/1999-B]

John was not son of Robert, as stated in AR7 #16A; he was son of Thomas [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 6/10/1999-B]

I theorize that by leaving the reversion of Breedon to our John de Driby, who was son of Thomas, they were keeping one manor in the male issue of the family [all the Driby estates would have passed with Alice into the Bernake family], even if he were a distant cousin. It was almost all our John was left with. Amy's lands would have reverted to the crown on her death. [Ref: Paul Reed SGM 6/10/1999-A]

CPR 1361-4, Edw. III, 12:519-20 is the source Hamilton cites for the conclusion that Amy de Gaveston's husband John de Driby died leaving his sister Alice as his heir. The actual text of the record proves beyond doubt that the John de Dryby named in the patent roll was not Amy's husband, but the John we have already discussed whose sister and heir Alice married Sir William Bernake.
"John de Dryby at the time of his death gave the castle of Tatersale to John de Kirketon, knight... and that the said John de Kirketon occupied the manors of Tumby, Kirkeby on Bayne and Skrymyhalle in Kirkeby... and that after the death of the said John de Dryby and Alice, his sister and heir, and John de Bernake, son and heir of the said Alice, John son and heir of the said John de Bernak being within age and in the king's ward ... and that after the death of the said John son of John Bernak who died in his nonage, William brother and heir of the said John son of John Bernak, was within age and in the king's ward...."
