The Northmen pirates were held at bay by Rhodri Mawr, "founder of the
princely houses of Gwynedd and Deheubarth (south Wales) and ruler of all
Wales save Dyfed (the land of the Demetae), Brecon, Gwent and
Glamorgan." {-Encycl.Brit.,`56,23:291} Sir Anthony Wagner, Garter King of
Arms ("English Ancestry," Oxford U. Press, 1961, pp.14-15) states:
"Rhodri's male ancestry is traced...to Coel Hen Godebog, who lived,
perhaps, early in the fifth century, while the line of Rhodri's
grandmother, that of the older dynasty of North Wales, is taken back to its
founder Cunedda, about A.D.450, and to Cunedda's father, grandfather and
great-grandfather, the Roman forms of whose names (Eternus, Paternus and
Tacitus) suggest that they were historical." "A History of Wales," John
Davies (New York: Penguin Books, 1993) p. 81: "A chain of marriages begins
around 800 when Gwriad, of the lineage of the Men of the North, married Esyllt
of the line of Maelgwn Fawr; their son, Merfyn, became king of Gwynedd in 825
on the death of Esyllt's uncle, Hywel ap Rhodri, Marfyn married Nest of the
house of Powys, and their son, Rhodri, married Angharad of the house of
Seisyllwg (Ceredigion and Ystrad Tywi). Rhodri became ruler of Gwynedd in
844 on the death of his father, of Powys in 855 on the death of his uncle,
Cyngen, and of Seisyllwg in 871 on the death of his brother-in-law Gwgon; he
died in 877, king of a realm extending from Anglesey to Gower. ...Rhodri's
fame sprang from his success as a warrior."Rhodri married Ankaret, Queen of S. Wales on Yes, date unknown. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

[dunbar_tree.FTW]
Hywel "journeyed to Rome in 928 and is styled `king of all the Welsh.' His
position enabled him to undertake a reform of Welsh law, for which
posterity gratefully remembered him; the representative gathering which met
at Whitland to receive the new code is without a parallel in the early
annals of Wales, and the `law of Howel', amplified and re-edited by
generation after generation of Welsh legists, became the standard of tribal
and personal relations throughout the country. In its precision and
subtlety, it has been held to be the greatest intellectual achievement of
mediaeval Wales."{-Encycl.Brit.,`56,23:291-2} See extended discussion of

Gruffydd ("Griffith") ap Cynfyn of Gwynedd has an illustrious ancestry
{-per "Royal Ancestors of Magna Charta Barons," Carr P. Collins, Jr.,
Dallas, 1959,}based on legend - it includes King Roderick the Great of
Wales (844-878); Lady Godiva of Mercia; Uther Pendragon (King of Britons in
498 and son of Constantine II, Emperor of the West, 337-340, son of
Constantine the Great); Howell the Good, Prince of South Wales who died in
948 and husband of Eleanor, daughter of the last King of Dyfred; King Lear
of England whom legend lists in direct descent from Aedd Mawr (King Edward
the Great, b. ca. 1300 B.C.). "Ancestral Roots..." (Balt, 1992) 239-5
states he was born at Dublin in 1055. He and Rhys were victorious over the

Llewellyn I, Ap Iorworth: he descends from the ancient Princes of North Wales (earliest known ancestor is Llewellyn, Prince of N. Wales, d. 994) and from Aelfgar (Edgar), Earl of Mercia who was banished in 1058 (d. 1059), and his wife Alfigifu (their
dau. Editha m. Griffith I, Llewellyn's son & heir). He recovered his paternal lands in 1194 and in 1201 was the greatest prince in Wales; in 1215 he took Shrewsbury; his rights were secured by special clauses in the Magna Charta. In 1239 he retired to
a Cistercian monastery. Ernst-Friedrich Kraentzler, "The Ancestory of Richard Plantagenet and Cecily de Neville..." (Salt Lake City: Accelerated Indexing Systems, 1978), p. 25, gives Llewellyn's birth year as about 1164. He is known as "The Great".
