The series comprises sketch maps of Garn estate land at Rhuddlan, being an enclosure of marsh purchased in 1803 and a parcel received in an exchange with the Dean of St Asaph, 1806.

The file comprises a lease by Mary Wynne to Edward Jones, of Cae Llwyd in the township of Tre'r-llan, 1794. The property was probably part of the lands later inherited by Robert Griffith from his mother, Jane, who was daughter and heiress of Mary Wynne.

The file comprises a grant in fee farm by Humfrey Cloughe of Denbigh, mercer, to David Ryder of the same place, burgess, of a parcel of land 21 yards long and 1 yard wide in a suburb of Denbigh, in a place called Neelders Hill, between the garden of Humfrey Cloughe on one side and the land or stable of David Ryder on the other at an annual rent of 10d, dated 2 May 1572.

The file comprises deeds for a house and a garden bordering on Sandy Lane, Denbigh. In 1704, Elizabeth Roberts of Denbigh had devised the garden by will to Robert Hughes, corviser, at which time it lay between the lands of John Wynne, esq., on the east, land of Jane Jones, widow, on the west, Penlan Ditch on the north and Sandy Lane on the south. Robert Hughes sold the garden in 1712 to Richard Evans and Mary, his wife, whose son, Edward Evans, sold it, together with a house, to William Davies of Henllan in 1768. In the same year, William Davies willed the property to his son, also called William Davies, living in Audlem, Cheshire, who finally sold it to Mary Wynne of Denbigh in 1789.

The series comprises title deeds for properties in the parish of Henllan, 1630-1867.

The file comprises deeds, 1766-1856, for Ffrith Eithin, alias Rhes y Cae, which had been mortgaged to Mary Wynne by Thomas Evans of Denbigh in 1803. As executor of her will, her son-in-law, John Wynne Griffith, was entitled to claim repayment of the mortgage money. The presence of a draft deed of sale would suggest that the property had become forfeit to the Griffith family, intended to be sold by George Griffith in 1856.

The file comprises deeds for lands (Bryngwyn, Bryn Robin, etc.) and a smithy in Henllan, and a property called Dolben, Llanefydd, which were sold by Robert Salusbury Cotton to John Jones in 1776. The bundle includes a mortgage by John Jones to Robert Williams of Gwysaney, 1780, after which date Dolben disappears from the deeds. In 1793 an agreement was made to sell the lands at Henllan to John Wynne Griffith, and they were assigned to him the following year.

The file comprises a deed of sale by Thomas Mostyn Edwards and John Heaton, assignees of the bankrupt Rev. Roger Clough of Bathafarn, to John Wynne Griffith for four cottages in Henllan, 1829.

The file comprises deeds for Buarth Bach, which was part of the lands which came into the hands of Mathew Hughes of Llanefydd when he married Gwen Davies, daughter of Alice vch John Foulke of Berain, 1662. The lands were described as a capital messuage in Dincadfel, lands called Kay Tu Hwnt i'r Berllan and Y Weirglodd, and a cottage and parcels of land, which included Buarth Bach, in the township of Bodysgawen. The properties were mortgaged twice by David Hughes, in 1716 and 1722, to Henry Williams of Denbigh. After the latter's death, his executors assigned the mortgage in 1733 to Robert Williams of Lleweni Green in trust for the payment of legacies, and the equity of redemption descended to David Hughes' daughter, Jane. In 1738 Jane and her husband, John Roberts, directed Robert Williams to assign the mortgage to Peter Jones of Plas Pantwn and to sell him the cottage and land in Bodysgawen. A settlement was made of the purchased premises in 1739 to raise £40 for the portion of P.J.'s daughter, Anne, and empowering him and Jane to raise £60 for the payment of remaining debts. By 1785 the lands were in the ownership of William Jones of St Andrews Holborn, London, and Thomas Peake, who mortgaged Buarth Bach, followed by a further mortgage in 1787, to John Madocks of Lincolns Inn. He sold it, with the consent of William Jones, to John Williams of Plasnewydd, Denbighshire, who mortgaged it in 1817. By 1832, Buarth Bach was in the ownership of Thomas Hughes of Liverpool, devisee of John Hughes of Garthgynnan, who sold it to George Griffith of Garn in 1864.

The file comprises deeds relating to Penporchell, which had been purchased by Thomas Griffith from William Lloyd of Hendre in 1696. It was one of the premises settled by Edward Griffith of Plasnewydd on his daughter, Elizabeth, when she married Robert Wynne of Cwm Mein in 1713. By 1728, Penporchell, or at least part of it, was in the ownership of Thomas Williams of Meiriadog, who mortgaged it to Dorothy Jones in 1733. He settled Penporchell and lands in Twysog on his daughter, Mary, when she married Thomas Jones, son of Robert Jones of Dymeirchion, 1749. Several assignments and further mortgages were undertaken between 1766 and 1798, by which time the premises were in the hands of Thomas Jones, grandson of Thomas Jones of Cwm. In 1801, one of the assignees, John Lloyd Salusbury, purchased the lands in Twysog, hence their disappearance from the deeds at this point. There were further mortgages and assignments of Penporchell from 1803 to 1852. Thomas Jones died in 1860 and by his will appointed a trustee to sell or mortgage Penporchell to pay legacies and to hold the estate in trust for his eldest daughter, Miriam. She mortgaged it, with the trustee's consent, in 1863 to Gabriel Roberts, who immediately assigned the mortgage to Eliza Parry. George Griffith purchased the property in 1864 and leased the premises back to Miriam Jones at the same time. -- Another part of Penporchell, Penporchell Uchaf, remained in the possession of the Wynne family until the Plasnewydd estate was sold in 1808.

The file comprises deeds for Bryndeunydd, Vron Hill and Derm, which had formed part of the lands described in the marriage settlement of John Jones of Denbigh and Mary Evans of Llandyrnog, 1748. In 1785, Robert Watkin Wynne of Plasnewydd agreed to purchase the properties from Mary Jones, who was then a widow, and whose son, John Jones the younger, completed the sale in 1792. Two terms of years on existing mortgages were assigned in 1793, and again in 1812 in trust for the new owner of the Plasnewydd estate, John Heaton. John Richard Heaton sold Bryndeunydd with premises on the Hafod estate to George Griffith in 1856.

The file comprises deeds for properties on the Hafod estate, in the townships of Llechryd and Penporchell, purchased by George Griffith from John Richard Heaton in 1856. In 1778, Thomas Hughes of Bronwhylfa, St Asaph, had purchased Hafod, Merllyn, a mill and Nant from the trustees of the will of Sir Lynch Salusbury Cotton, and in 1787 he sold all four properties to Robert Watkin Wynne of Plasnewydd. The latter mortgaged Hafod, Merllyn and the mill in 1790, and Nant and another property, Ty Celyn, in 1798. The Hafod properties, like most of the Plasnewydd estate, came into the ownership of the Heatons. John Heaton and his eldest son, John Richard Heaton, sold off Merllyn to George Griffith in 1837, followed by Bryndeunydd, Gwydr, Erw Streat, Tyn-celyn, Vach, Hafod and Pwll y glomen in 1856. The properties were shortly afterwards mortgaged by G.G. to Rev. George Powell and others, and were reconveyed to him in 1862. In 1890 W.D.W. Griffith made a conveyance to Denbigh Corporation of certain rights over parts of Hafod estate in connection with Henllan water supply, and in 1903 an agreement for laying of a new line of pipes.

The file comprises deeds for Tan y Llan and Pentre in the parish of Llanefydd and Llain Hir in Henllan, which were sold to John Wynne Griffith by Elizabeth Giffard in 1819. It includes an abstract of her title, 1737-1818. [Tan y Llan was conveyed to trustees in a family settlement of 1833, for raising money for the portions of J.W.G.'s younger children].

The file comprises deeds for Bryn Canol, alias Bryn Bach, which was purchased by George Griffith in 1860 from the mortgagees of Mary Edwards. She was the daughter of John Foulkes of Llechryd, who had originally bought the property from John Williams of Llangynhafal in 1822.

The file comprises deeds for Bryndeunydd or Bryn Issa, which was mortgaged by Richard Parry of Llwynynn, Llanfair Dyffryn Clwyd, in 1834. An abstract shows the descent of title between 1773 and 1843. After his death the trustees of his will enlarged the property with the purchase of an encroachment from the Commissioners of Woods and Forests, shortly before selling to George Griffith of Garn in 1849. This appears to be different from the capital messuage of Bryndeunydd, which was sold by John Richard Heaton to George Griffith in 1856.

The series comprises deeds relating to properties in the parish of Llanrwst, 1575-1801, including Llwyn Gronw and Cae'rberllan, which were acquired through the marriage of Jane Hughes to John Griffith (3) of Garn in 1762.
