Pedigree of Gawen Goodman of Ruthin

  • NLW MS 24106G.
  • Ffeil
  • 1584

Pedigree and achievement, 1584, of Gawen Goodman of Ruthin, compiled by Simwnt Fychan and drawn by Richard Thomlyns of Denbigh, with eighty-eight other coats of arms, nearly all fully painted.
The pedigree shows Goodman's descent, through the female line, from twenty-five prominent ancestors, mostly Welsh, represented by twenty-five shields in two rows at the top of the pedigree; the arms of royal houses are surmounted by gold crowns. The remaining sixty-three coats of arms, the majority of which are impaled, are scattered throughout the pedigree. Personal names are enclosed in roundels. The pedigree includes Gawen's younger brother Gabriel (Dean of Westminster, 1561-1601) and other siblings, as well as Gawen's children and those of his other brother Godfrey. The achievement is placed at the lower right-hand base.

Pedigree of Francis Vaughan of Yorkshire

  • NLW MS 24125G.
  • Ffeil
  • 1591

Pedigree and achievement, 1591, of Francis Vaughan (Vychan or Vichan, d. 1597), of [Sutton-upon-Derwent], Yorkshire, compiled by Thomas Jones (Twm Siôn Cati) of Fountain Gate, Cardiganshire, and probably executed by Richard Adams 'paynter of Ludlow' (c.f. NLW Roll 226), with fifty-three fully painted coats of arms, mostly impaled and many quartered.
The pedigree is traced from 'Kradog Vraychvras, Earle off Herefourde', 'Iustyn ap Gurgan, K[ing] of Glamorgan & Morganog', 'Ryes Tewder [Rhys ap Tewdwr], King off Southwales', 'Griffith ap Kynan, King off Northwales', and 'Bleddyn ap Kynvin, Prynce off Powys', as well as from Edward I. Additional information is enclosed in twelve cartouches, mostly scattered throughout the top third of the pedigree, with one each in the bottom corners. The pedigree most closely resembles 'Style 1' in Michael Powell Siddons, Welsh Pedigree Rolls (Aberystwyth, 1996), p. 11. Vaughan's grandfather was Thomas Vaughan of Porthaml, Talgarth, Breconshire; the family's association with Yorkshire began only with Francis's father, John, who settled there early in the reign of Elizabeth I. Francis Vaughan was chief steward of crown lands in the East Riding from 1580, High Sheriff of Yorkshire, 1594-95, and was killed in Ulster, in service to the crown, in July 1597.

Mr Langford's Book of Genealogies

A miscellaneous collection of pedigrees made by Thomas Langford between 1611 and 1625, partly out of the collections of other Welsh genealogists. There are several tables of the Langford family, with the remainder of the volume containing pedigrees from all parts of Wales and from border counties, particularly Cheshire and Shropshire.
There are also some copies of documents mainly relating to Montgomeryshire, including a list of sheriffs, a rental of the manor of Llanerchydol, 1559 (f. 168), etc. In addition to pedigrees, there are some notes of the arms of English families (ff. 156-162), and of the creations of noblemen from Edward the Confessor to Elizabeth (ff. 144 verso-155 verso). The Hokleton pedigree (ff. 45 verso-46), was written by Richard Broughton of Oulbry.

Penty Park pedigree book

  • NLW MS 22386B
  • Ffeil
  • [c. 1663]

A volume of pedigrees in Welsh and English, evidently compiled in Carmarthenshire about 1663 (see f. 193). The collection is poorly organised. Carmarthenshire families predominate; Cardiganshire and Pembrokeshire are well represented; some pedigrees for other parts of Wales. Mostly based on earlier sources, many on the pattern of achau'r mamau and in Welsh, many coming down to the years 1625-1628. Sources named are 'John Moythe's book' (ff. 117-124 passim) and 'Thomas Johnes of Fountaine Gate' (f. 120 verso). Folios 1-22 contain world chronology, biblical and royal lines, down to Charles II. Additions, mostly of Carmarthenshire interest, by several hands of XVII and XVIII cent., notably by an annotator active in 1706 and, it appears, by John Jones of Pant-glas (fl. 1706-1744) (see ff. 26 verso, 45 versoi, 184, 193).

Wynn family notes

Notes in the hand of Chancellor Wynne, comprising notes on Anglesey and on Welsh genealogies (pp. 1-8); a genealogical table of the pedigree of Edward Wynn of Bodewryd (pp. 9-15); abstracts of deeds relating to Bodewryd and Tyndryvol, and copies of papers relating to lawsuits (pp. 17-90); some memoirs relating to Chwaen wen and Bodowir (pp. 91-98); and biographical notes of some members of the Bodewryd family (pp. 99, 107-110).
Also included is a copy, in the hand of Hugh Hughes, of a cywydd, 'Marwnad Dd. ap Rhees ap Lle'n ap Gr. Tad Hugh Gwynn Bodewryd a Phirse Llwyd Gwredog' by Sion B[rwynog] (pp. 15-16).

Hughes, Hugh, 1706-1774

Pedigrees by John Elis, Tai Croesion

A volume labelled on the spine 'Pedigrees by John Ellis, Tai Croesion. MS 1723' consisting of an earlier volume of pedigrees (pp. 9-89, 100-200) by and in the autograph of John Ellis, Taicroesion, [Llechyllched, Angelsey], interleaved with pedigrees in the autograph of J. E. Griffith (1843-1933), genealogist, with an index by him (8 ff.). There are numerous additions to the John Ellis pedigrees, some made in the eighteenth century, others made by J. E. Griffith. The John Ellis portion of the manuscript also contains some poetry, including 'Cowydd Trafferth y Byd ar Gyfraith' ('Anafus worth iawn ofyn...') by Tho. Prys (p. [156]), triads ('Dymma Drioedd Taliessin') (p. [159]), descriptions of arms, etc. There is also a note concerning windows in Clynnog church (p.

Plas Cadnant pedigree book

  • NLW MS 24014E.
  • Ffeil
  • [late 18 cent.]-[1840s]

A volume, [late 18 cent.]-[1840s], containing pedigrees, in several hands, mostly of Anglesey and Caernarvonshire families. The earlier portions, [late 18 cent.] (pp. 37-140), were copied mostly from Llyfr Melyn Tyfrydog (now NLW MS 23969F); later additions, [?1820s] (pp. 5, 151-283), are derived from the Taicroesion Manuscript (now NLW MS 19058E and Bangor MS 13564) or from intermediate copies.
A note by Jonathan Jones of Caernarfon in NLW MS 825D (inside front cover), dated 1855, describes the present volume as having been copied 'about 60 years ago from Llyfr Melyn Tyfrydog' by Robert Jones, for John Price (d. 1804) of Mona Lodge, Amlwch, with the pedigrees being continued by Price's son, John Price of Cadnant. The volume also includes descriptions of the Five Royal Tribes of Wales and the Fifteen Tribes of Gwynedd, partly in Welsh (pp. 137-150), and various antiquarian notes and statistics [in the hand of John Price of Cadnant] (pp. 290-355), including lists of Anglesey Sheriffs to 1843 (pp. 309-323), and transcripts relating to Amlwch parish church (pp. 341-347). Items loose within the volume, including a pedigree of the Bulkely family in the hand of John Price (watermark 1825), and a newspaper cutting, [1881], listing Caernarvonshire landowners, have been placed in an archival envelope. The contents of the manuscript are listed on pp. i-iv, 1-2.

Pedigree of John Bowen of Bath

  • NLW MS 24111G.
  • Ffeil
  • [1810x1819]

Pedigree roll, [1810x1819], of, and probably in the hand of, the Rev. John Bowen of Bath, incorporating seventy-five coats of arms, nearly all impaled and most fully painted by an unnamed artist, some surmounted with crests or crowns and all set within canopies, tracing Bowen's ancestors primarily from Caradog Fraichvras and Brychan [Brycheiniog] (f. 5), as well as Bleddyn ap Maenarch (f. 20).
The pedigree is based on 'the pedigree and achievements of Robert Bowen of Bally Adams' [in Queen's County (now Co. Laois), Ireland], a roll (now lost) of 1608 by Thomas Jones of Fountain Gate, Tregaron, together with a continuation of Robert Bowen's line to 1720 by William Hawkins, Ulster King of Arms (f. 32 verso). Three main lines of descent are depicted, originating with Caradog Fraichvras (f. 5), Brychan (f. 5) and Cadwaladr (f. 9) and ending with John Bowen (f. 34), with a single generation on each panel. Preceding these are the ancestors, some spurious, of Caradog and Brychan (ff. 2-4), together with a 'Regal Line' (ff. 2-8). Some collateral lines are also shown alongside the main lines of descent (ff. 29-30, 32-35); however in nine instances (ff. 4 verso-5 verso, 21 verso-23 verso, 27 verso-33 verso (versos only)), for reasons of space, the collateral lines extend onto the versos, most significantly to show the Bowens of Ballyadams (ff. 30 verso-32 verso). The early lineages (ff. 2-4), 'Regal Line' (ff. 2-8) and collateral lines are depicted without heraldry, other than occasional blazoning. Various notes have been added in the same hand, including lists of the children of Brychan Brycheiniog (ff. 6 verso-9 verso), a description of a monument to the Bowen family in Ballyadams (f. 30 verso) and notes on the original pedigree (f. 32 verso) and Thomas Jones (f. 36 verso). A few later annotations, to 1832, are on f. 34. A painted figure of a woman holding in her left hand a shield displaying the Bowen arms and in her right hand a pedigree roll is on f. 1. The matches shown in the line of Roger ap John of Llanfrynach (see f. 27) differ significantly from those in P. C. Bartrum, Welsh Genealogies A.D. 300-1400 (Cardiff, 1974), pp. 863, 865. For the Bowens of Ballyadams see Lord Walter FitzGerald, 'Ballyadams in the Queen's County, and the Bowen Family', in Journal of the Archaeological Society of the County of Kildare and Surrounding Districts, 7 (1912-1914), 3-32, and Rhys Morgan, The Welsh and the Shaping of Early Modern Ireland 1558-1641 (Woodbridge, 2014), pp. 76, 146, 193, 197.

Bowen, John, 1747-1835

Gilfach pedigree books

  • NLW MS 23967i-iiE.
  • Ffeil
  • [1830s]-1896

A two-volume collection of pedigrees, mainly of South Wales families, compiled during the 1830s (23967iE watermark 1828; 23967iiE watermark 1831), with some later additions, by David Jones Lewis, Gilfach, Llanwrda, Carmarthenshire.
A duplicate set of these volumes, also written by David Jones Lewis, are the 8 volumes of Gilfach MSS in the College of Arms, London (see Francis Jones, A Catalogue of Welsh Manuscripts in the College of Arms (London, 1988), pp. 69-71), which are dated by colophon to 1830. This duplication is mentioned in a note, dated 8 July 1895, in 23967iE, p. 1, by Lewis's grandson, David Jones Lewis of Llwyncelyn, Llanwrda, who has also overwritten parts of the earlier text, as well as adding pedigrees relating to the Lewis family, [1895] (pp. 1438-50), and a copy of 'an account of the Lewis family in the handwriting of my late grandfather', 1896 (pp. 1494-6). There are minor additions relating to the Lewis family, to at least 1978, in several different hands (pp. 1438-41, 1448-50). A copy of an unpublished account, [1990s], of the Lewis family of Gilfach and Llwyncelyn, including references to the Pedigree Books, is now NLW ex 2511. An index to these two volumes is now NLW MS 23968i-iiE.

Lewis, David Jones, 1773-1848.

Egerton Grenville Bagot Phillimore: Achau Cymreig

A volume containing a copy of Cardiff MS 59 made by Egerton Grenville Bagot Phillimore (1856-1937), antiquary, at various dates between 1886 and 1891. The copy ends on p. 75 of the original manuscript and the rest of the original manuscript was copied into another volume, now NLW MS 142B. Though the original manuscript is usually attributed to Thomas Jones (Twm Sion Cati) he was in fact dead in 1611, when the manuscript was written; proof of this is to be seen in an Exchequer Deposition 8 Jas I, Easter 13, where Jones's widow is described as 'Dame Johan Devereux nowe wife of Sir George Devereux, knt., late wife of Thomas Jones, gent.', the date of this entry being April 12 1610. Voluminous notes by Phillimore have been added to the copied manuscript. With NLW MS 142B.
