A volume containing 'An English Pedegree & Genealogy of The Gentry of the Counties of Cardigan Carmarthen & Pembrock In Three Bookes with a table to Each of Them, Together with their Arms ffixt to Each Pedegree'. It was written in 1739 and was apparently copied from the same source as Peniarth MS. 156, which was published in West Wales Historical Records, vol. I, pp. 3-96, vol. II, pp. 1-96. Most of the pedigrees are taken down to 1739, but there are additions and insets in later hands to 1769, and one inset in the hand of W[illiam] G[wynne] S[tedman] T[homas of Carmarthen]. At the end of the volume, originally in the form of loose leaves, are notes of births, marriages, and deaths, 1695-1769, of members of the families of Lloyd of Cilgwyn and Coedmor and Lewes of Troedyraur, co. Cardigan.
