Iury – This variant spelling of “Jewry” (according to the OED and Quinn’s index of persons and places) refers Palestine/Israel; the word occurs on pg. 763 of Hariot and is listed among other Mediterranean locations, such as Crete and Cyprus. According to the OED, “the land of the Jews, Judea, sometimes extended to the whole of Palestine.” - Matt
