| Description | Term : 99 years at 5/- a year. The seven persons were the Reverends John Griffith of Caernarvon and Benjamin Jones of Pwllheli; William Hughes of Brynbeddau in Llanwnda, farmer; John and David Jones of Brynllefrith, parish of Llanarmon; Rowland Hughes of Rhosgyll Bach, farmer; and David Williams of Saethon, gentleman [father of David Williams, later of Castell Deudraeth, M.P. for Merioneth for a short time].
