"Ednyfed [ap Ierworth] was a son of Ierworth ap Einion of Yns y Maengwyn, who was farmer of the ville of Towyn (i.e., lessee of the Crown Revenues there) and of the office of Reglor of the comôt of Estimaner, Merionethshire, at Michaelmas, 1415, and also held in farm the office of Woodwarden of Estimaner at Michaelmas, 1425, for the term of two years, that being the first. The wife of Ierworth was Gwenllian, daughter of Kenric ap Rotpert of Tegaingl, and relict of James Eyton, of Eyton, in the County of Flint.
