Biographical Note
Clifford Merrill Drury was born November 7, 1897 in Early, Iowa, the
son of William and Mae Dell Drury. His first academic degree was an A.B. from
Buena Vista College in Storm Lake, Iowa. He served in the Chemical Warfare
Service of the United States Army at Yale University in 1918. In 1919 he
transferred to the American Red Cross at Fort Des Moines, Iowa. Following his
term in the service, Drury enrolled in San Francisco Theological Seminary at
San Anselmo, California. He received his degree and was ordained in the
ministry of the Presbyterian Church in 1922. That same year, on November 17, he
married Miriam Mayhew Leyrer.
After serving for a time as assistant pastor to a Berkeley, California
church, he went to Shanghai, China, where, from 1923-1927, he accepted the
position of pastor in the Community Church. Drury returned to the United States
in 1928 and accepted a call to the First Presbyterian Church in Moscow, Idaho,
1928-1938.
While at Moscow, Drury became interested in the history of the Oregon
Mission of the Presbyterian Church, and began the research that would occupy
the remainder of his life. The results of his research were twelve published
volumes on the history of the Protestant missions in the Pacific Northwest.
In 1932 Drury was awarded a PhD from the University of Edinburgh,
specializing in historical subjects. As a distinguished author and educator he
received honorary degrees from Buena Vista College, Iowa; Whitworth College and
Whitman College, both in Washington State.
Drury became professor of church history at San Francisco Theological
Seminary in 1938 where he served until his retirement in 1963. During this
period he was also chaplain in the United Stated Naval Reserve, 1933-1958,
including a stretch of active duty, 1941-1946, and the official historian of
the Chaplain Corps of the United States Navy from 1944-1956.
The collection includes Drury’s source materials (both originals and
copies); research notes; and correspondence regarding Marcus and Narcissa
Whitman, Elkanah and Mary Richardson Walker, and Henry Harmon Spalding,
1934-1966. The bulk of the material related to his research for the
three-volume work,
First White Women over the Rockies, letters of the Six Women of
the Oregon Mission, 1836 and 1838 (Arthur C. Clark: 1963, 1966). Also
included is Drury’s personal correspondence, 1938-1983.
