Hi,
I have found two more wills at the Library of Wales
Elizabeth Williams 1767 Llandefalle Breconshire
https://viewer.library.wales/555216#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0&xywh=103%2C445%2C1953%2C1296I this will Elizabeth bequeaths all of her estate in Clifford Herefordshire to her godson Jenkin Williams (son of Thomas Williams, Skreen, Llandeilo Graban, Radnor) and fifty pounds each to Elizabeth Beavan and Fortune Beavan the daughters of Samuel Beavan Gent. of Newchurch in Radnorshire
The other will of Thomas Williams 1792 Llandefalle has many references to his brother Jenkin Williams (not Beavan!) , who has a hold of two thousand pounds on Thomas's Estate.
https://viewer.library.wales/669069#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=5&xywh=327%2C462%2C2363%2C1568On page three of the will he states that his estate will inherit Willbrook in the Parish of Peterchurch on the death of his mother Bridget Wiiliams. On her death he directs Hohn Hughes and Hugh Bold to sell Willbrook and apply the proceeds towards the debt owing to Jenkin Williams on his estate in Radnor.
Onn page four Thomas directs that after the sale of Willbrook and the release of the debt to Jenkin Williams the whole of his estate shall be sold and the proceeds divided between his children and other relatives..
I think that was near the end of the long-standing and prosperous era of the Williams families at Skreen and Velin-Newyd.
It is possible that His son Thomas Williams emigrated to America after that, but there is no sign at all of that happening, as far as I can see.
Nevertheless there were many from that immediate area (Llandeilor Graban, Erwood, Gwenddwr, and Crickardarn) who emigrated to Radnor Ohio about that time.... Including David Pugh, Mary Pugh, and Isabella Pugh from Skreen Farm, Llandeilo Graban (not Skreen Manor, where the wealthy Williams's lived). There was also William Williams son of the Rev. John Williams, who married Isabella Pugh and went to Ohio as early as 1790.
Maybe the Williams family bankrolled David Pugh in order to buy a few thousand acres of land around Radnor Ohio in 1802 (see David Pugh, pioneer, Radnor Ohio)
Best regards to you all...
