Gruffydd (JJ-1)

      My tenth-generation grandfather down from the top, Gruffydd (JJ-1), would have lived at least his early years at Llwyn-Ynn. Documentation of his location is recorded in the following source and, it is shown below. The information is to be found in Heraldic Visitations of Wales and part of the Marches, Vol. II, by Lewys Dwnn, p.347. It is a valid and reliable source which has helped guide me among the many branches of my Jones surname family tree.

      The top line marked in yellow gives Griffydd (JJ-1) ap Ierwerth (JH-1) ap Ieva (JG-1) spelled in the Welsh. A footnote (8) is shown which directs to the bottom right, also marked in yellow. It states: "Descendant of Tydyr Trefor. He lived at Llwynon, in Denbigshire." A reliable source indeed it is.
