| Description | Description of lands held by Samuel Jones, father of John, Tyddyn-y-felin, Bryn-y-ffynnon, &c., held by him (though the document is badly broken at this point) as heir to John and Lowry Prichard; lands bought into the settlement by Jane Whyte included Tyddyn Madog Goch and Tyddyn y Llan in Llanystumdwy - these were held free of incumbrances except for the dower or jointure accruing therefrom to Elizabeth, now married to Henry Rowlands of Llwynbedw, but whose first husband was John Wynn of Gwynfryn in Llanystumdwy (it must be remembered that Ann Whyte and that it was natural that the widow of the Gwynfryn squire would have first claim upon his estate). Jane Whyte (she signs as White) was sister to the Mary who married Anthony Thomas of Hendre (Pedigrees, 288). The first witness was Richard Langford, cler. [rector of Penmorfa since June, 1699]. |
