Generation 12

2048. Merfyn Frych ap Gwriad, king of Gwynedd, d. 844 [AU, AC] [HG.1:
"Mermin"]

2049. Unknown. [JC.18 gives her as Nest, daughter of king Cadell of
Powys. She, like Angharad (#1025), appears to be a late invention,
for reasons which are the same as for Angharad. See SW and the note
under #1025. Since Nest probably never existed, the supposed line of
descent through her from the kings of Powys is probably not valid.]

2050-2175. Unknown.

2176. Unknown. [Note: Some would place the legendary Ragnarr Lobrk
(a figure of the Icelandic sagas and of the Danish pseudohistorian
Saxo) in this position. However, Ragnarr Lobrk is a figure of
legend, not history, and the historically documented genealogy ends
with Ivarr (#1088).]

2177-2191. Unknown.

2192. Muirecn mac Diarmata (of the U Felin branch of U
Dnlainge), king of Laigin, d. 863 [AU] [R.117d=BB.138a (Rw.18,
CGH.14); LL337f (CGH.423)]

2193-2207. Unknown.

2208. Corcc mac Anluain (of In Dis Tuaiscirt [Dl Cais])
[R.152b=LL.322f (Rw.1274-5, CGH.237); R.154a=LL.336d=Lec.225Rb
(Rw.1359, CGH.250)]

2209-2215. Unknown.

2216. Menach mac Flaithnia (of U Briin Sela) [BB.90b]

2217-2239. Unknown.

2240. Muiredach mac Brain (of the U Muiredaig branch of U
Dnlainge), half-king ("leth-ri") of Laigin, d. 818 [AU]
[R.117c=LL.337d=BB.138a (Rw.11, CGH.13)]

2241. Etromma ingen Indellaig [WUD]

2242-3143. Unknown or duplicated.

3144. Bleiddig (or Bledri) [TYP no. 68, ByT] [Note: His son is listed
in the Welsh triads as one of three kings who were sprung from
villeins. No patronym is known for him.]

3145. Tangwystyl ferch Owain [HG.2: "Tancoystl merc Ouein"]

3146-4095. Unknown or duplicated.

Generation 13

4096. Gwriad, probably from the Isle of Man, and possibly the person
named on an inscription ("CRUX GURIAT") on a cross in the Isle of Man
which has been dated to the eighth or ninth century. [Note: The
genealogy which purports to make Gwriad a direct male-line descendant
of Llywarch Hen is almost certainly a late fabrication. It is more
likely that his paternal ancestors were among those who are named in
HG.4, but the exact line of descent (if any) is uncertain, and
Gwriad's parentage must be regarded as unknown. See SW for a
discussion of these issues. See also GH.]

4097. Esyllt ferch Cynan Dindaethwy [HG.1: "Etthil merch Cinnan"]
[Note: The best and earliest sources give her as the mother of Merfyn
Frych. Later sources erroneously assign her as Merfyn's wife. For a
discussion of this error, see SW.]

4098-4383. Unknown.

4384. Diarmait mac Ruadrach (of the U Felin branch of U
Dnlainge), king of Airthir Liphi, d. 832 [AU] [R.117d=BB.138a (Rw.18,
CGH.14); LL337f (CGH.423)]

4385-4415. Unknown.

4416. Anluan mac Mathgamna (of In Dis Tuaiscirt [Dl Cais])
[R.152b=LL.322f (Rw.1273-4, CGH.237); R.154a=LL.336d=Lec.225Rb
(Rw.1359, CGH.250)]

4417-4431. Unknown.

4432. Flaithnia mac Fiangalaig (of U Briin Sela) [BB.90b]

4433-4479. Unknown.

Dnlainge), king of Laigin, d. 795 [AU] [R.117c=LL.337d=BB.138a
(Rw.11, CGH.13)]

4481. Unknown. [Note: Bran was married to Ethne, who also d. 795
(AU), daughter of Domnall, king of Mide (Meath), but it is unknown if
she was Muiredach's mother.]

4482. Indellach mac Meic [F]orb[b]a (of U Tellin Roirend) [WUD]
[Note: His name is given as "Findellbach" in the BB version of WUD.]

4483. Fidcossa [WUD]

4484-6289. Unknown or duplicated.

6290. Owain ap Maredudd, d. 811 [AC] [HG.2: "Ouein map Margetiud"]

6289-8191. Unknown or duplicated.

[AC] [HG.1: "Cinnan map Rotri"]

8768. Ruaidri mac Felin (of the U Felin branch of U Dnlainge),
king of Laigin, d. 785 [AU] [R.117d=BB.138a (Rw.18, CGH.14); LL337f
(CGH.423)]

8769-8831. Unknown.

8832. Mathgamain mac Toirrdelbaig (of In Dis Tuaiscirt [Dl Cais])
[R.152b=LL.322f (Rw.1272-3, CGH.237); R.154a=LL.336d=Lec.225Rb
(Rw.1359, CGH.250)]

8965-12579. Unknown or duplicated.

12580. Maredudd ap Tewdws, king of Dyfed, d. 796 [AC] [HG.2:
"Margetiut map Teudos"] [Note: His obituary is generally regarded as
the earliest contemporary entry in the Annales Cambriae, the earlier
entries having been inserted in the annals at a later date, based on
sources whose exact nature is a matter of debate.]

12581-16383. Unknown or duplicated.
