Part of Tredegar Estate Records,
Mainly settled accounts, being rentals of the Ruperra estate in the parishes of Llanfihangel-y-fedw, Cardiff, Roath, Whitchurch, Llanisien, Llys-faen, Rhydri, Tregolwin and Llanwonno in Glamorgan, Garthbrengi, Llandyfalle, Bronllys, Glasbury and Llys-wen in Breconshire, Sandhill Farm and Stowy Farm in Somerset, and the estate left to Thomas Morgan of Ruperra, esq., by Lewis Morgan of Machen, esq., in the parishes of Basaleg, Coedcernyw, St Brides, Marshfield, Michaelston-y-fedw, St Mellons, Rumney, Peterstone and Malpas in Monmouthshire, plus casual profits and promiscuous payments. Lewis Morgan's late estate is distinguished from the rest of Thomas Morgan's estate until 1743; from 1744 it is listed with the rest of the estate. -- There are also a number of rough copies, probably drafts, and duplicate accounts. -- The rental includes the whole of the estate until 1766 (Somerset disappears after 1756); the 1767 rental is for Glamorgan only, while the 1768 rental is headed 'Ruperra estate in the county of Glamorgan'. The rentals for 1769 and 1770 were presumably missing before the Tredegar estate records came to NLW, as they fall between the former NLW references Tredegar MSS 48 and 49. The 1771 rental is of holdings in the parishes of Llanfedw, Cardiff, Roath, Whitchurch, Llanisien, Gelli-gaer, Llanwynno, Colwinston, Llys-faen, Rhydri and Michaelston-y-fedw, and the township of Llanfedw, all in Glamorgan, and in Newport town and the parishes of Rumney, Basaleg, St Brides, St Mellons, Coedcernyw, Marshfield, Peterstone, Malpas, Llantarnam, Llanfihangel-y-fedw in Monmouthshire. -- At the rear of AGR 1/4-5 are settled accounts of Tredegar rents in the parishes of Rumney, Peterstone, St Brides, Marshfield, Coedcernyw, St Mellons and Llanfihangel-y-fedw in Monmouthshire, plus casual profits and promiscuous payments, 1773-1787. The rentals are the continuation of the NLW Tredegar MSS 17, the collection of William Morrice. Malpas is added in 1783.
