  • EDNYFED FYCHAN MAREDUDD - er na ellir bod yn sicr pa ran o diroedd y teulu a ddisgynnodd i Faredudd. Bu Goronwy, Rhys, a Gwilym yng ngosgordd bersonol y brenin Richard II. Y mae Maredudd, tad Owain Tudur a hendaid y brenin Harri VII, yn ffigur annelwig braidd (gweler 'Tuduriaid diweddar'); bu'n ' ysiedwr ' Môn cyn 1392 ac yn 1404 fe'i disgrifir fel ysgwïer i esgob Bangor.

  • EDWARD ap HYWEL ap GRUFFYDD (fl. 15 ganrif), cywyddwr nad oes ond ychydig o'i waith ar gael Yn NLW MS 6471B ceir dau gopi o'i gywydd 'i ofyn klog i Syr Richard.' Gellir casglu o'r cywydd mai Richard Redman, esgob Llanelwy o 1471 hyd 1496, oedd y gŵr hwn. Priodolir dau englyn i Edward ap Hywel yn NLW MS 3047C, eithr yn ôl Peniarth MS 99 eiddo Sion Tudur yw un ohonynt.
  • EDWARD ap HYWEL ap GRUFFYDD (fl. 15th century), writer of cywyddau Very little of his work is extant. In v there are two copies of his cywydd 'to ask Sir Richard for a cloak.' It can be deduced from this that it is addressed to Richard Redman, bishop of St Asaph from 1471 to 1496. In NLW MS 3047C two englynion are attributed to Edward ap Hywel, but Peniarth MS 99 attributes one of them to Siôn Tudur.
