AdminHistory | The Kenrick family of Wynn Hall, Denbighshire are descendents of Cynwrig ap Rhiwallon. Wynn Hall, situated in the parish of Ruabon was built by William Wynne c. 1649. The estate passed into the Kenrick family through the marriage of Sarah Hamilton, niece of John Wynn of Wynn Hall (d. 1714), to the Reverend John Kenrick. In the 17th and 18th centuries the family was connected with the development of nonconformity in the Wrexham area.
Detailed biographical information regarding family members can be found in "The Dictionary of Welsh biography down to 1940" (London, 1959) and "Chronicles of a nonconformist family: the Kenricks of Wynne Hall, Exeter and Birmingham" by Norah Kenrick (Birmingham,1932). |
