hynafiaeth, a'i hanes." Author Robert Prys Morris (of Dolgellau.)

A colourful story, which may help fill a gap.

I am a descendant of Elizabeth Pughe of Helygog 1790 -1827 who in
Nov 1814 married John Pughe of Rwiwogo Tal y llyn 1787 - 1827. This
Elizabeth is sister to Robert Pughe 1788 - 1822 who in Nov 1834
married a Margaret Pughe 1807 - 1890 born near Darowen Mont. All I
know of Elizabeth's mother was she was Sarah and born circa 1761.
There is a will of a Lewis Pugh of Helygog 1790 in which he
mentions his wife Catherine daughter of Rev Hugh Pryse. But there
are letters of admin for a Lewis Pugh in 1743 and they are rather
odd! His widow is a Gaynor Robert and she is renouncing his estate
in favour of his son called Howel Lewis. She also refers to a Lydia
Owen as the deceased widow of the deceased Lewis Pughe.
I am trying to join up the dots down to my Elizabeth. Can anyone help?
Best Regards to all
Robin Hassall
