| Teitl | Evidence of witnesses in the tithe case between Edmund Meyrick, archdeacon of Bangor and parson of Llandegai (complainant), and Sir Rees Griffith of Penrhyn (defendant), at the Consistory Court of Bangor. The case turned on whether the tithes issuing from the weirs of Gored Cegin and others were to be paid in kind or in certain customary sums of money. The witnesses were John Thomas, clericus, [probably an old curate at Llandegai]; David Moythey, one of the canons of Bangor; William ap Harry Cowler, 70 years of age; Ieuan ap Einion (84) and Edmund ap Jankyn (88). |
