Hi Jenny,
I am descended from an Elizabeth Gam, my 6 x great grandmother who was born
about 1663 probably in Llanafan Fawr in Breconshire. She married Simon ap
Lewis son of Lewis ap John of Llanafan Fawr. I am very doubtful if
Elizabeth is decended from David Gam of Agincourt as my Lewises were
infamous rather than famous!
Regards,
Margaret Harvey

Subject: [WLS-BRE] GAMES FAMILY
Hi Everyone,
Is there anyone researching the name GAMES.
My G-G-G-Grandmother was Lucretia GAMES ( born ca 1764) who was married in
1798 at
St Marylebone London. At this time it was stated she was from St
George, Bloomsbury London but as yet I have not found her birth/baptism.
I believe the family originated in Wales and in one piece of family
information it says Mr ------ GAMES (her father) was Welsh. I know that
there was Games family were in Brecon and family story has it that they are
descended from David GAM of Agincourt fame.
Has anyone heard of Lucretia???
Would appreciate information from anyone researching this name
Thanks,
Jenny in N.Z.
