    SAMUEL GRIFFIN OF NEW CASTLE COUNTY ON DELAWARE,. PLANTER; AND HIS DESCENDANTS TO THE SEVENTH GENERATION. COMPILED AND PUBLISHft;D BY THOMAS HALE STREETS, M. D., U. S. N. ,1t1a1ei,,t1, .... 190 5. INTRODUCTORY NOTE. There is a statement in one of' the books of Robert Louis Stevenson, that the proper summit of any Cambrian pedigree is a prince. I can give no better reason than this for the claim that has been made that we are descended from Llewelyn ap Gruft'ydd, the last Prince of Wales. .t_."'or n1y part, I have not beeri able to trace the family beyond the narrow confines of Delaware. In that State they were " childi:en of the soil. u 1'hey are characterized in deied and will as "yeomen " and " planters.". Griffith is a very common surname in the county directories of Wales. Griffin, the 14~nglish eorrup­ tion of the same name, is eeldom seen in those · books, but is quite common in the Englitsh border counties. TBOIIAS HALE STREETS. U. S. N.\VAL Hoxs, JlilacWplia, A, 14 .Ntrtc.arr, II06. THE FAMILY TRADITION. ,vhy does the number three appear in so many family traditions ; a,, for instance, " there were three brothers ? " Three is the holy number of the old Chaldeans, and its use may be a mysticism inherited from ren1ote r,ncestors. We are also told that the early Britons had a passion for the figure 3. In the tradition of the Griffin family three brothers came from Wales and settled in Delaware. This story has been handed down through several lines of descent, and is substantially the same in its several versions.
