Merionethshire / Williams of Deudraeth 2 contradictory pedigrees to chose from.
« on: Monday 30 May 16 08:14 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone 
I have posted before and received great help piecing together the various parts of this family for which I am most grateful. My question today revolves around 2 pedigrees that may connect at some point but currently appear to be at odds.
One is from Burkes' Peerage and the other from J. E. Griffith's 1914 Pedigree of Anglesey and Carnarvonshire Families. Hopefully, someone familiar with all this can help shed some light.
Burke's 1894 reads:
WILLIAMS OF DEUDRAETH CASTLE.
Lineage—
Gethin Wynne, of Saethon, who assumed the surname of Williams, was the son of Maurice Wynne, of Saethon, by Catherine his wife, dau. of Maurice Williams, of Hafodgarregog ; m. Jane, dau. of Robert Price, of Plasdu, and had a son, William Williams, of Saethon, ra. Eleanor, dau. of Arthur
Devereux, of Nantycribba, co. Montgomery, and had a son, Arthur Evans Williams, of Saethon, m. Elnaia, dau. of Eichard Anwyl, of Dolfiiog, co. Merioneth, and had a son, John Williams, of Saethon, m. 1748, Ann, dau. and co- heiress of Dafyd ap Griffith, of llendre, and d. 1796, leaving
a son, David Williams, Esq. of Saethon, who, by Jane his wife (whom he m. 19 May, 1790) had several sons and daus.
The 1914 pedigree ties John Williams to father William the son of Ann Trygarn the daughter of Richard Trygarn. John's wife also differs as she is identified as Anne Griffith in the 1894 publication as opposed to an Anne Davies in the 1914 pedigree.
1914 pedigree
Ann Jones d.1736 (aged 102!) daughter of Richard Trygarn d. 1666 aged 80 years
William Jones d. 1748 married 2x - first wife = Jonet ; second wife = Ann Hughes
John Williams 1713-1796 m. Anne Roberts d. of Robert Davies of Lonfydyr
David Williams of Saethon d.1823 marries Jane (Jones?) daughter of Capt. Edward Jones of Coed Marion.
Any help sorting out this mess is appreciated.
Diolch!
