           PAPERS ABOUT RHIRYD FLAIDD AND PENLLYN

The Lineage of Pebid Penllyn

Traces the family of a 5th century Powys nobleman called Pebid Penllyn, which daughtered-out in the 12th century.  The heiress had an only daughter who passed the Penllyn Lordship to her only son, Rhiryd Flaidd. 

The Men of Pennant Melangell in Mochnant

Discusses two families found in the paternal ancestry of Rhiryd Flaidd, concentrating on his half-brother named Gwrgeneu Fychan, which seeks to explain why the Lordship of Bryn in Powys was NOT inherited by Rhiryd.  

Rhiryd Flaidd, Lord of Penllyn

A look at the immediate family of Rhiryd Flaidd, which has been imperfectly cast in most pedigrees and biographies. Also argues that there was another man called Rhiryd Flaidd, born a generation earlier, that most have conflated with the Lord of Penllyn.
