adog, brethren ; Einion ap Cariadog as mould feeme the elder 

 brother, was Lord of Penychen, Penyberth, and Baladevlyn. 

 His fonne, Tudur ap Einion, died without iflue of his body, and 

 his lands were begged by the Queene, King Edward the Firft his 

 wife, as appeareth in this hiftory. Gruffith, the fecond brother, 

 was Lord of Friwlwyd, Yftrad, and Elkibion ; he had iflue David, 

 which David had three fonnes ; David Chwith ap David, Mere- 

 dith, and Howell ; which are mentioned before to have exchanged 

 their efbte at Denbigh with Henry Lacie, earle of Lincolne. 

 Will' alias Wilcocke Craidog, the third brother, maried an inhe- 

 retrix in Penbrokeuhire, where his pofteritie have remained ever 

 fince, haveing, from the houfe called Newton, named them- 

 felves Newton Craidog, both in Pembrokefhire and Somerfet- 

 fhire. Some of the Newtons claim their lineal defcent from 

 Howell ap Gronw, Lord of Yftradtowin, an'o D'ni 1 100, de- 

 fcended from Rytherch ap Jeftin, Prince of Wales. Note, 

 among thefe three brethren, the pofreritie of the one remaines ; 

 of the other two, the one is vanimed, and the other gone out of 

 the countrey. Of Gruffith b his grand-children, only the pofle- 

 ritie of Howell are extant, who was before (rated to be the 

 youngeft of the three fons of Gruffith Lord of Friwlwyd. LafHy, 

 in Jevan ap Robert ap Meredith his children, which were five, 

 only the pofteritie of Meredith are extant, and of account. 

 Whereupon comparing things pad with things to come, I pre- 

 fage God's mercy to the kindred hereafter, as heretofore. 



Now after this large digreffion, to return e to the courfe of 

 this former hiftorie, Rys ap Einion Vaughan haveing had warn- 

 ing, as aforefaid, that Henblas c mould be redeemed, hafted to 



b i. e. Gruffith ap Cariadog's grand-children. P. 



' Henblas, as well as Brynfullty, is afterwards defcribed, as being in 

 the Lordfhip of Denbigh. It is fuppofed that Henblas is the fame with
