WILFRE
, bishop
by Arnulf of Montgomery. The fact is that Wilfre could not hope to challenge the foreign Church successfully after the death of
Rhys
ap
Tewdwr (1093), and he made his peace with Anselm, archbishop of Canterbury, who had previously excommunicated him; Anselm defended the rights of S. Davids against the Norman barons of South Wales. It is not clear whether this means that Wilfre had made his

Referred to by contemporaries as 'Sir' Thomas Williams and 'Sir' Thomas
ap
William, he generally styles himself 'Thomas Wiliems, physician.' Little is known about him, apart from his work. According to his own testimony, he was born 'at Ardhe'r Meneich, at the foot of Eryri, in the commote of Llechwedd (i.e. Arllechwedd) Isaf, Caernarvonshire,' but he does not mention the year of his birth.
