AdminHistory | This Edward Griffith was son to Edward Griffith, a Caernarvon merchant who had married Grace, sole heiress of the last of the old Ymwlch family of Morris (itself a younger branch of the house of Clenennau). Edward Griffith was a great rover; he had not been near Ymwlch or North Wales for years before his death, which happened by his being killed off Margate pier after his boat had crashed into the steam-packet Eclipse (for more about his family, see Pedigrees, 382). |
