Gruffudd Fychan I
Gruffudd Fychan I, Prince of Powys Fadog from 1277 to 1284, was the youngest of the four sons of Prince Gruffudd ap Madog, Lord of Dinas Bran. On his father's death in 1269 (or 1270) his share was the Lordship of Iâl (Yale) and Edeirnion, which included Glyn Dyfrdwy. He was aligned to Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, Prince of Wales, in the war of 1277. In the peace treaty, it was agreed that he would not do homage to Llywelyn for Edeirnion, but to Edward I of England for Iâl. He again fought alongside Llywelyn during the war of 1282–1283, and lost his lands with his defeat. Nevertheless, the Earl of Surrey persuaded the king to allow him possession of his lands, which he held from the king as a tenant at will for the rest of his life. He died in 1289 leaving a young son, Madog Crypl. Owain Glyndŵr Owain ap Gruffydd (), commonly known as Owain Glyndŵr or Glyn Dŵr (, anglicised as Owen Glendower), was a Welsh leader, soldier and military commander who led a 15 year long ...

Gruffudd Fychan II
Gruffudd Fychan II was Lord of Glyndyfrdwy and Lord of Cynllaith Owain c.1330–1369. As such, he had a claim to be hereditary Prince of Powys Fadog. Ancestry The epithet 'Fychan' implies that his father was also called Gruffudd. However certain genealogical tables convey conflicting data. It has been thought that he was the ''son'' of Madog Crypl who died in 1304. However, for him to inherit the succession and hold it ''until 1369'' seems unlikely. Other tables suggest his father was Gruffudd ap Madog Fychan, a son of Madog Fychan. Most probably, he was the grandson of Madog Crypl, whose son Gruffudd was aged about six at his father's death, but already married. Gruffudd was still alive in 1343. Marriage and children Gruffudd Fychan II was married to Elen (Eleanor), great-granddaughter of Eleanor of England, the daughter of King Edward Longshanks and Queen Eleanor of Castile, members of the House of Plantagenet. Her father was Thomas ap Llywelyn, Lord of South ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
