Everything points to his having been a native of Bugeildy parish, Radnorshire; indeed, Maesgwyn may have been the family home. In
John
Evans's lists, c. 1715, Griffiths's name comes third of the three ministers of the

GROSSMAN, YEHUDIT ANASTASIA
(1919 - 2011), Jewish patriot and author
John
Petts, founder of the Caseg Press before the war, and his belief (erroneous, in fact) that he had Welsh roots, living in north Wales had been a dream for Jonah Jones. It was to his family home at Wardley, Tyne and Wear, that he and Yehudit turned on landing in Britain, but they spent a month at the cottage of Petts and his second wife, Kusha, in Cwm Pennant, shortly after their return to Britain

that Gruffudd became the 'under-king' of King Edward, although the chronicle of
John
of Worcester merely notes that the two men were reconciled. When Ælfgar was again exiled in 1058 he immediately fled to Gruffudd and the allies were joined by the Norse crown prince Magnus Haraldsson who led a fleet recruited from the Hebrides, Orkneys and Dublin. Some unidentified area of England was attacked, but

Dynevor in 1425. He was sheriff of Carmarthenshire in 1436. With Edmund Beaufort, parts of the lands of Phillip Clement were demised to him in 1437.
