Note

The reason for the presence of these deeds has not been established with certainty. The most likely explanation is the family connection between Williams of Faenol and Owen of Brogyntyn. Magdalene, daughter of Sir Thomas Williams of Faenol, married Lewis Anwyl the younger, whose daughter Catherine, by his first wife, married William Owen of Brogyntyn in 1648.
