The series comprises deeds, 1744-1906, relating to the Cilgell Isaf Estate in the parishes of Llansawel, Pencarreg and Cellan.

T̂ŷ Newydd, previously called Gardd y Cwm, comprised two dwelling houses and gardens in 1845. In 1744 Rees David of Llansawel devised the premises to to his wife Margaret for life and after her death to his eldest son Rees and his heirs. Just over a century later in 1845 Rees Rees of Cilgell Isaf conveyed the premises to his eldest son David Rees, also of Cilgell Isaf. The file also includes the marriage settlement of Rees David of p. Llanddewibrefi, co. Card., and Mary Thomas, daughter of Walter Thomas of Godre'r Garth, p. Llanddewibrefi, 1787, and David Rees' claim in 1845 to have his name inserted on the electoral register on the basis of ownership of T̂ŷ Newydd.

Pencae Isaf was partitioned sometime before 1778 into two parts with one moiety going to Catherine Samuel of p. Pencarreg, co. Carm. In 1778 she levied a fine upon her moiety to enure to her son Samuel Evan or Evans of Pencarreg, tailor. By his will, proved in 1823, by which time he is living in Llanybydder, he devised the premises to his daughter Ellinor Thomas of Pantyronnen, p. Llansawel, widow of John Thomas late of Llansawel, farmer. In 1838 Ellinor sold Pencae Isaf to David Jones of Ddoynant, p. Pencarreg, gent., for £160. David Jones in turn sold the same in 1865 to David Rees of Cilgell Isaf, p. Pencarreg, for £220. By his will, proved in 1890, David Rees divided the Cilgell Isaf estate in two: premises called Glanteifi, Glanteifi Cottage, Penygraig and Brynhirfaen he devised to his nephew Rees Jenkin Jones, whilst Cilgell Isaf, Pencae Bach and Pencae he devised to his nephew David James Jones of Broniestin, Aberdare, co. Glam. -- The file includes the probate of will of Samuel Evans of Llanybydder, 1823, and of David Rees of Cilgell Isaf, 1890, in which he bequeathes £100 to Brondeifi Chapel, Lampeter, towards liquidating its debts, a power of attorney from one of his legatees, Walter Thomas of Los Angeles County, California, 1891, and share certificates of David Rees of Ivy Cottage, p. Lampeter, in the Manchester and Milford Railway Company, 1860.

Card., which was usually considered part of Penygraig, were sold by Lewis Bayly Wallis of Woodcote End, p. Epsom, co. Surrey, esq., to Rev. Lewis Turnor of Wervill Brook, p. Llangrannog, co. Card., clerk, for £3,000 in 1807. In 1815 David Rees of Cilgell Isaf agreed to purchase Penygraig, Glanteifi and Tir y Gaer for £3,000. It appears that the last two premises were part of the manor of Cellan which Lewis Turnor had purchased from Thomas Johnes of Hafod at a public auction held in London in 1804. However, the purchase of these three m's was in fact executed by Rees Rees of Cilgell Isaf in 1818.
