Pedigree roll drawn by Water Hopkins, and finished at Brecon, 10 Dec. 1633, showing Sir William Morgan of Tredegar's lines of descent from various great personages, including from Edward I, king of England; Alfonsus, king of Castille; Philip, king of France; Peter, king of Spain; William, earl of Henalt [Edward III's father-in-law]; Edmund of Woodstock, earl of Kent; Richard, earl of Arundel; Roger Quincy, earl of Winchester; William, earl of Ferrers; John, lord Wake; James, lord Audley; Walter Devereaux, lord Ferrers of Chartley; Ralph, lord Boteller; Robert, lord Whittney; and Thomas, lord Roch. -- The descents are padded to some extent, with some lines of descent effectively duplicating others, including those showing Sir William Morgan's descent from Edward II, Edward III and Edmund of Langley, duke of York, son, grandson and great grandson of Edward I; and from Thomas Holland and Edmund Holland, earls of Kent, the grandson and great grandson of Edmund of Woodstock, earl of Kent. -- The roll encloses three pages of notes by Octavius Morgan, including "this pedigree is a good illustration of the practice of ostentatious pedigree making which prevailed in the reigns of Elizabeth I, James I & Charles I. It probably took its use from the researches which were made in the time of Henry VII to ascertain the Tewdwr descent, and was revived again in the time of Edward VI when a great stir was made to draw out the Herbert pedigree on the creation of the second Earl of Pembroke ..."

A volume [in the hand of Sir Samuel Rush Meyrick], the first part of which ( pp. 1-322) consists of an incomplete, heraldic dictionary, purporting to contain descriptions of 'The Arms of the gentry of Wales, and some others of the English gentry who match'd in Wales, alphabetically layd down'. Some of the descriptions are illustrated with pencil sketches of armorial shields, and a few of these have been coloured. A holograph note by S. R. Meyrick, on a fly-leaf at the beginning of the volume, reads 'The following Manuscript was copied from another, written about the latter end of the 16th, or beginning of the 17th century; and is an authentic heraldic compilation. The coats of Arms were not added to the original'. The second part of the volume (pp. 323- ) appears to have been intended as a biographical dictionary of the persons and families included in the first part ('Annotations on the foregoing heraldic Manuscript'). An incomplete list (A-L) of the said families and persons was compiled, but only in a comparatively few instances have notes been added.
