A small thin slate gravestone or plaque is in the possession of my Aunt, Mrs A.R. Jones of
Llanllechid. Sadly, it became damaged before she removed it for safe keeping. It may have
been on the wall of the old Llanllechid church. It was kept on the grave of the
Llwynpenddu family for many, many years.
"Underneath intered the body of Rowland Edwards who died 24th of Decr. 1745 aged 66
yrs.
Also intered the body of Grace Rowlands the daughter of the above said Roland Edwards, who
died the 7th day of May 1783 aged 59 years.
And also intered the body of Catherine Griffith wife of the said Rowland Edwards. She died
the 25 of May 1787 aged 95."
So we have Rowland EDWARDS 1679 - 1745
Grace ROWLANDS (dau) 1724 - 1783
Catherine GRIFFITH 1692 - 1787
The above family apparetnly came from Ty'n Twr (also known as Ty John Iorc) Mrs
Jones wants to know the connection between the Ty'n Twr and Llwynpenddu families.
Can anyone help or advise? Dw i'n darllen y Gymraeg.
