Research Notes: Wife - Jane Puleston
From History of the Town of Wrexham, pp. 137-138:
"It is true that in the Puleston pedigree at Gwysaney, compiled in 1665, John Puleston, the grandson of Madoc Puleston, is described as of Hafod y wern, but I have almost invariably found this John Puleston's son (also called John Puleston), described as of Tir Môn, and his grandson, Piers Puleston, as of Burras. There is no doubt, however, that Piers Puleston's son and successor, John Puleston, not merely owned Hafod y wern, but lived there. And as to John Puleston Tir Môn himself, he is described in the marriage settlement, dated October 31st, 1541/2, of his daughter Jane, as 'John Puleston, the elder, esquire, of Wrexham.'.As the provisions of the marriage settlement... are very peculiar, it may be well to summarize, and in part, quote them. The agreement is between John ap David ap Howel (son and heir of David ap Howel, of Bersham), gent, and the above named John Puleston, Esq., in anticipation of the marriage of the said John ap David with Jane Puleston, daughter of the said John Puleston. 'The said John Puleston covenaunteth and graunteth to brynge the said Jane his dochter to the churche dure in ye same state as she is nowe, and ther wed and take to her husband the said John ap David and also to arey hir to hir wedyng accordyng to hir degree, and also to pay the said John ap David the somme of six and thirtty poundes xiiis iiiid. . . . and also to fynd the said John ap David and Jane his wiffe meates and drinkes and logyng the space of oon yere immedyatly following the marriage, and at the yeres yende to delyver and geve to the said John and Jane reasonable Beddyng' (Arch Camb. 1878 vol., p. 70). Mr. John Puleston ( the son of Mr. Piers Puleston), indubitably lived at Hafod y wern, and was followed by his son Robert Puleston, who was succeeded by his son of the same name, as the annexed pedigree shows."
