Two months after the death of Charles I, William Drugeth died in early September 1342. In January 1343, his widow Maria Follia stated that William died of a rapid-onset illness. Accordingly, William donated a portion of land in Visegrád to John, the parish priest of Visegrád for his own salvation and his services still in his lifetime, but he could no longer issue a certificate of donation, so the widow made up for it. A royal charter of Louis I of Hungary from June 1343 mentioned the "orphans" of William. Consequently, two or more daughters were born from the marriage of William Drugeth and Maria Follia after 1330, who were still minors in 1343, but their fate is unknown. After William's death, his estates in Northeast Hungary ought to pass back to the Crown, as he had no any legitimate male heirs. Under the influence of Queen Elizabeth and Thomas Szécsényi, Louis rejected William's last will and testament from 1330, and his younger brother Nicholas Drugeth was not recognized as his heir. The semi-autuonomus province in Northeast Hungary was partitioned and disintegrated by early 1343. The royal court also confiscated the vast majority of the Drugeths' private property. As a widow 's allowance, Maria Follia was able to retain Széplak (Krásna) and Nádasd (Trstené pri Hornáde) in Abaúj County (today both villages locate in Slovakia), where she lived thereafter. She also owned two palaces and an estate in Visegrád. The palatinal archives also remained in her possession.
