There seems some difficulty as to the sister of the celebrated Owain Glyndwfrdwy, who is said to have married Davydd ab Ednyved Gam. In Harleian MS. 4181 the aforesaid Dafydd is said to have married Gwenllian, d. and coh. of Adda Goch ab Ieuan ab Adda ab Awr of Trevor [and daughter of Griffith Vaughan of Glyndwfrdwy]. The part between brackets has been crossed out, as is frequently the case amongst these MSS.

It seems to have arisen from the error or carelessness of the copyist. Edward ab Davydd of this line married Angharad, daughter of Robert Puleston of Emral], slain, 1 Henry IV, by Lowry, daughter of Gruffudd Vychan of Rhuddallt, sister to Owain Glyndwr. This Adda Goch of Trevor witnessed a deed of Richard Fitzalan, Earl of Arundel, in 1356, and is said to have borne the arms of Tudor Trefor in a bordure gobony, gules and argent, pellety counterchanged. He left three daughters, coheiresses,—Gwenhwyfar, Angharad, and Gwenllian. In Harl. MS. 1545 we are told that Sir John Croft married Jonnett, daughter and coheiress of Owain Glyndower ; and by this match the blood of the Welsh hero was conveyed to the families of Croft, Blount, Herbert, Darell, Scriven, Vaughan, Clun, Har- ley, Gamage, Delaware, Standolph, Hastings, Scuda- more, Rudhall, Aston of Ribbesford, Cave, etc. It will be noticed that in the Welsh authorities
