| Description | by William Griffith of Gwernengan from Sir Thomas Mostyn of Mostyn. Devolution as follows : Sir. Thomas was heir and executor to his mother Dame Margaret Mostyn; she was niece and devisee of her uncle Evan Lloys Vaughan of Cors-y-gedol; to him had been assigned a judgement obtained in the Court of King's Bench against the original owner, a David Evans of Liverpool, mariner, by Rowland Jones [of Broom Hall]. 1 of 7 papers in this group of documents; some of them clear up the obscure reference to this particular Vaughan of Cors-y-gedol in Pedigrees, 279, which refer to him as Evan Vaughan merely [instead of Evan Lloyd Vaughan, his mother being Margaret being daughter and heiress of Sir. Evan Lloyd of Bodidris] and having no date of death [which happened on 4 December 1791]. His heiress was Margaret, daughter of Dr. Hugh Wynn of Bodysgallen by his wife Catherine, daughter of Richard Vaughan of Cors-y-gedol. |
| AdminHistory | There are three other documents of later date referring to this property. William Griffith died in 1821, his wife Catherine in 1835, leaving the messuages of Bryn Iwrch and Tyddyn Du to the daughter Lowry, who had married Edmund Griffith of Glyn in Llanihangel-y-traethau, and to the son Griffith Griffith of Mochras. By agreement dated 6 November 1838, followed by a regular conveyance (document CYN/33) dated 5 December 1838, Edmund and Lowry Griffith sell their interest to G.G. for £700. |
