Clettwr, otherwise Tir Dyffryn Clettwr, Tir y Rhydlydan, otherwise Rhydlydan, Esgaironw, Sarne Gwnion, and Llain y Rhos Rhydd, all in p. Llanarth, co. Card., were devised in 1620 by Rees ap Jones [of Clettwr], to his son John ap Rees. In 1747 Mary Rees, probably the daughter of Rees Jones of Clettwr who married Mary Griffith in about 1670, settled all the premises upon Rees Jenkin her second son by her late husband Jenkin John.
