Research Notes: Husband - Celynin ab Rhirid ab Cynddelw
Source: The History of the Princes, the Lords Marcher, and the Ancient Nobility of Powys Fadog, Vol. 6, by J. Y. W. Lloyd, London, 1887, p. 113, gives his pedigree from Lewys Dwnn, vol. ii, p. 277, as follows:
"...ab Llewelyn ab Einion ab Celynin, who killed the Mayor of Caermarthen. Celynin bore sable, a he-goat argent, armed, bearded, and unguled or; and became possessed of Llwydiarth by his marriage with Gwladys, daughter and heiress of Rhirid ab Cynwrig Evell (ag a gavas Llwydiarth Ymhowys). Her mother was Arddun, daughter of Itel Goch, son of Meredydd ab Bleddyn, Prince of Powys. Celynin was the son of Rhirid ab Cynddelw ab Iorwerth ab Gwrgeneu ab Uchtryd ab Aleth, King of Dyved. Azure, three cocks argent, created, wattled, and armed or."
Then the author writes in an extensive footnote:
"But it must be remarked that this is not accordant with the Llwydiarth pedigree as given in Lewys Dwnn, vol. i, p. 294. There 'Gwellian, the daughter of Meredith ap Rhydderch ap Tewdwr Mawr' (? Mawr) is stated to be the wife of Celynin, and 'Gwladys, daughter of Richard, Lord of Dinas Certhin', to be his mother. It is said, however, that in the Salisbury MSS. at Wynnstay, that Gwladys, the daughter of Ririd ap Cynwrig Evell, is stated to be the mother of Celynin, and not the wife, as mentioned in Lewys Dwnn, vol. ii, p. 277. This would account for the acquisition by Celynin, either by heirship or marriage, of Llwydiarth, assuming that it was part of the territory of Cynwrig Evell.
Celynin was living in the time of Edward II or Edward III (130740), and an experienced genealogist throws a doubt as to the possibility of Celynin, or his father, being contemporaneous with a grand-daughter of Cynwrig Evell.
We cannot venture to pronounce which of these discordant statements is correct, or how they are to be reconciled; but looking at the main circumstances of the case, we should certainly infer that Llwydiarth was acquired by Celynin, by marriage, rather than descent.
"He was a South Wallian by birth and family, and upon committing a homicide,--'killing the Mayor of Caermarthen,'--under what circumstances, and whether justifiably or not, it does not appear, he fled from the scene of his crime--which it is natural to conclude was Caermarthen--to Powys-land.
"According to the Llwydiarth Pedigree in Lewys Dwnn, vol. i, p. 294, his wife Gwellian, and his mother, Gwladys, as well as the rest of his female ancestresses up to the sixth degree in lineal ascent, were of South Wallian families.
"It is not probable that Llwydiarth could be derived from any of them.
"The statement in the Salisbury MSS., of his mother being the daughter of Ririd ap Cynwrig Evell, is most improbable. How should his father, Ririd ap Cynddelw, form an alliance with a family of Powys-land, with which district his family seemed to have no connection until Celynin fled into Powys-land?
"The probabilities of the case all seem to point to Celynin himself being the medium by which this important accretion of territory came to his family.
"He was the first of his family connected with Powys-land.
"The statement in Lewys Dwnn, vol. ii, p. 277, is distinct and circumstantial, that he married Gwladys, daughter and heiress of Ririd ab Cynwrig Evell, 'ag a gavas Llwydiarth ymhowys' (and obtained Llweydiarth in Powys).
"To reconcile this with the Llwydiarth pedigree in Lewys Dwnn, vol. i, p. 294, the only theory that occurs to us is, that Celynin must have been married twice: first, before he left his native country, South Wales, to Gwellian, daughter of Meredith ap Rhydderch ap Tewdwr Mawr; and secondly, after he fled from Caermarthen and arrived in Powys-land, to Gwladys, daughter of Ririd ap Cynwrig Evell.
"If this theory would hold water, Celynin's son Einion, the first of the family styled 'of Llwydiarth', would inherit that estate from his mother, Gwladys, the second wife, and not Gwenllian, the first wife.
"The direct statement of Lewys Dwnn, who is almost invariably trustworthy, coupled with the strong probability of its truth, seems to us to deserve respect and creidt. Until otherwise advised, therefore, we shall assume, on the authority of this celebrated herald, that Llwydiarth was derived by Celynin through his marriage with its heiress, after he settled in Powys-land.--M. C. J."

"The relationship between Wales and Ireland was an ambiguous one. There was much fruitful contact in the 'Age of Saints' but the Mabinogi does not offer a portrait of two countries in close Celtic embrace. In 1110, Madog ap Rhirid of Powys was glad to return to Wales because he 'could not bear the godless morals of the Irish'..."

"William I died in 1087 and his territories were divided among his sons--his eldes, Robert, became duke of Normandy and his second son, William Rufus, became king of England. William II was less masterful than his father and less able to maintain the patronage which Rhys ap Tewdwr had received from William I. In 1088 Bernard of Neufmarché attacked Deheubarth; he captured Brycheiniog and began to build a castle at the confluence of the rivers Usk and Honddu (Aberhonddu--Brecon). In 1093, in seeking to resist him, Rhys ap Tewdwr was killed."

"According to Asser, the rulers of Dyfed and Brycheiniog feared the pwer of the sons of Rhodri, while the rulers of Gwent and Glywysing were threated by Aethelred, earl of Mercia. When Alfred came to the throne in 871, the whole of England, apart from the southern rim of Wessex, was in the hands of the Danes but, as a result of his successes against them, Alfred came to enjoy great power and renown. Asser states that the smaller rulers of Wales asked him for his patronage and that Anarawd ap Rhodri, king of Gwynedd and Poweys, followed their example, abandoning his alliance with the Danish kingdom of York. It is likely that his brother Cade3ll, ruler of Seisyllwg, did the same, and thus the king of Wessex became overlord of the whole of Wales. .. The recognition by Welsh rulers that the king of England had claims upon them would be a central fact in the subsequent political history of Wales."
----------
From Wikipedia - Anarawd ap Rhodri :
Anarawd ap Rhodri (died 916) was a King of Gwynedd , also referred to as "King of the Britons " by the Annals of Wales .
Anarawd's father Rhodri the Great had eventually become ruler of most of Wales , but on his death in 878 his kingdom was shared out between his sons, with Anarawd inheriting the throne of Gwynedd. Anarawd and his brothers Cadell and Merfyn are recorded as cooperating closely against the rulers of the remaining lesser kingdoms of Wales. Earl Aethelred of Mercia invaded Gwynedd in 881, but Anarawd was able to defeat him with much slaughter in a battle at the mouth of the River Conwy , hailed in the annals as "God's vengeance for Rhodri", Rhodri having been killed in battle against the Mercians .
Anarawd then made an alliance with the Danish king of York in an attempt to guard himself against further Mercian attacks. When this alliance proved unsatisfactory, he came to an agreement with Alfred the Great of Wessex , visiting Alfred at his court. In exchange for Alfred's protection Anarawd recognised the supremacy of Alfred. This was the first time a ruler of Gwynedd had accepted the supremacy of an English king, and formed the basis for the homage which was demanded by the English crown from then on.
In 894 Anarawd was able to repel a raid by a Danish host on North Wales, and the following year raided Ceredigion and Ystrad Tywi in southern Wales. He is reported as having some English troops under his command for these raids. In 902 an attack on Ynys Môn (Anglesey ) by some of the Danes of Dublin under Ingimund was repulsed. Anarawd died in 916 and was succeeded by his son Idwal Foel (Idwal the Bald).
Anarawd would establish the princely house of Aberffraw , taking the name from his principal seat of government on Ynys Môn. His descendants would rule Gwynedd until the Edwardian conquest of the late 13th century.

"In Deheubarth [about 1194], Rhys ap Gruffudd was troubled by the waywardness of his sons, and the agreement between Rhys and the king of England came to an end when Henry II was succeeded by his son, Richard I, in 1189. Rhys died in 1197. His heir was his eldest son, Gruffudd, whom Chronica de Wallia referred to in 1200 as prince, the last of the rulers of Deheubarth to be given that title. Gruffudd was challenged by his brothers, Maelgwn and Rhys Gryg in particular, and following his death in 1201 the authority of his son, Rhys Ieuanc, was restricted to Cantref Mawr, the region between the rivers Tywi and Teifi. In the struggles in Deheubarth, Maelgwn received the support of John who became king of England on the death of his brother, Richard, in 1199. John had direct interests in Wals, for, through his marriage with the heiress of Glamorgan, he was lord of the greatest of the Marcher Lordships. In 1199, John bestowed Ceredigion and Emlyn on Maelgwn through royal grant.."

From Wikipedia - Gerald de Windsor :
Gerald de Windsor, also known as Gerald FitzWalter, was the nobleman in charge of the Norman forces in Wales in the late 11th century.
Gerald was the son of Walter FitzOtho and Gwladys ferch Ryall , married Nest of Deheubarth , daughter of Prince Rhys ap Tewdwr and Gwladys ferch Rhiwallon , around c. 1095.
Gerald held the office of Constable of Pembroke Castle from 1102 , was granted the manor of Moulsford in Berkshire (now Oxfordshire ) by the King and built a motte and bailey castle at Carew in Pembrokeshire .
He had five children with Nesta:William (died 1173), Father of Raymond Fitzgerald Maurice FitzGerald (born c. 1100, died 1 September 1176 ) andDavid FitzGerald , Bishop of St David's (died c. 1176)[1],Angharad possibly Gwladys
Research Notes: Wife - Nest verch Rhys
From Wikipedia - Nest ferch Rhys :
Nest ferch Rhys (died after 1136 ) was a Welsh princess of Deheubarth who was renowned for her beauty. Nest was the daughter of Prince Rhys ap Tewdwr Mawr by his wife, Gwladys ferch Rhiwallon . After her father's death in 1093 , Deheubarth was conquered by the Normans and King Henry I of England appointed himself her protector. Nest is thought to have borne him a son, Henry FitzRoy (1103-1158).[1]
Around 1095 King Henry decided to marry Nest to one of his followers, Gerald de Windsor , whom he appointed Constable of Pembroke .
Nest and Gerald had five children:
William FitzGerald (died 1173 )
Maurice FitzGerald , Lord of Llansteffan (died 1 September 1177 )
David FitzGerald , Archdeacon of Cardigan and Bishop of St David's
Angharad de Windsor , who married William de Barry
A daughter (possibly Gwladys), the mother of Milo de Cogan
During Christmas 1109 , Nest and her husband were visited by her cousin, Owain ap Cadwgan , son of Cadwgan ap Bleddyn , Prince of Powys . The story goes that Owain was so taken with Nest's beauty that he and fifteen companions attacked the castle of Cenarth Bychan (possibly Cilgerran Castle or Carew Castle , both in Pembrokeshire ), seized Nest, and carried her and her children off.
Tradition also states that Gerald escaped by jumping down the garderobe (i.e. the lavatory chute) to get away. The children were later returned to Gerald. Nest is said to have borne Owain two sons, Llywelyn and Einion, before finally being returned to her husband.
This abduction earned Nest the nickname "Helen of Wales " because it led to civil war on a small scale. Owain ap Cadwgan left the country to avoid retribution, whilst Owain's father, Cadwgan ap Bleddyn , lost his own lands. Gerald waited for Owain to return to Wales, then ambushed and killed him. After Gerald's death, Nest became the lover of Stephen, Constable of Cardigan , by whom she had another son, Robert Fitz-Stephen who died in 1182 .
Nest's daughter, Angharad, married William de Barry and had by him four sons: Robert; Philip, the founder of Ballybeg Abbey at Buttevant in Ireland; Walter; the historian Gerald of Wales . Her sons Philip and Robert campaigned in Ireland with Strongbow ; Robert died there in 1182 .
Robert and Philip were the founders of the family Walsh /Welsh of Kilkenny where they built a Castle known as Castle hale of Kilkenny, Ireland Castle Hale of the Walsh Mountains Kilkenny They conquered Kilkenny. They had become known as the "Welshies" rather than "Hywel" and thus named,they remain to this day; the name Hale being derived from Howell.
Therefore the Welsh and Walsh family of Kilkenny Ireland are also descended from Hywel Dda .
