    Conan "le Tort" took Nantes in 990; descends from a Conan known as Cynan
    Medriadog, Prince of Albaine and Powys, who died in 421 (m.388 Dareara,
    sister of St. Patrick & dau. of Calphurnius) - the legends also have Cynan
    leaving to found a colony in Armorica, France in 384. Legend also traces
    Conan's line from ancient Welsh "kings." As Count of Rennes he subdued the
    entire province and his son and successor, Geoffrey, was first to assume
    the title "Duke of Brittany." The dukes were crowned at Rennes.
