Hanes archifol

Tipped in at the beginning are 20 leaves (ff. i-xx) with notes mainly in the hand of Richard Fenton, but also by Thomas Tucker of Sealyham (in a letter dated 1800), Edward Protheroe and W.W.E. Wynne of Peniarth. Folios 74-96 also contain later annotation, mostly in Fenton’s hand. The Fenton book-plate is inside the upper cover, the signature of W.W.E. Wynne added to it. Fenton’s son Samuel had sold the manuscript to Wynne in 1827 [Transactions of the Honourable Society of Cymmrodorion, 1948, 465]. The manuscript was copied by Joseph Morris in 1830 in Wynnstay MS 141.

Ffynhonnell

Ardal cynnwys a strwythur

Natur a chynnwys

Pedigrees for the three south-west Welsh counties derived from the early version of The British Geneologist of David Edwardes of Rhyd-y-gors. ‘The Pedigree of the Gentry in Cardigan shire’ (ff. 1-21 verso, original pagination 1-40, f. 16 is an insertion); Carmarthenshire (ff. 22-52 verso, original pagination 1-62); Pembrokeshire (ff. 53-73, original pagination 1-40, ff. 53-4 are misbound). The immediate source appears to be NLW MS 14214, including the earliest additions to that manuscript but not those by the second hand; and placing Cardiganshire before Carmarthenshire.
The pedigrees are printed from this manuscript in West Wales Historical Records, vols 1-2, where it is asserted (in vol. 1, p. [2]) that the scribe is ‘the same person’ as the one who wrote the Golden Grove Book. The hand is indeed similar to that of the amanuensis of Evan Evans of Carmarthen [died 1773], compiler of the Golden Grove Book, but some features of the script consistently differ.
