The family apparently acquired some lands in Anglesey following the marriage of Robert Davies (died c. 1687) with Margaret, daughter of William Thomas of Maenol Bangor. Robert Davies' s grandson, Hugh Davies, died aged 36 without issue in 1721 so that the estate passed to his sister Grace who married Hugh Jones, vicar of Caerhun and rector of Llanbedr y Cenin. Their son, Hugh Jones of Caerhun and Brynhyrddin assumed the surname Davies on inheriting the estate. He died without issue in 1771 and bequeathed the estate to his sister Catherine who married Ralph Griffith of Bron Gain. Their heir was Hugh Davies Griffith (d. 1802) of Caerhun, rector of Llanbedr y Cenin. The estate passed to his son, Hugh Davies Griffith (d. 1877) of Caerhun who, through his marriage in 1825 with Hester Thomas, acquired the Downing estate in Flintshire and the Llechwedd Garth estate in Montgomeryshire. Their heir, Hugh Thomas Davies Griffith (d. 1882) died without issue and the estate passed to his sister, Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru = The National Library of Wales Tudalen | Page 3 GB 0210 CAERHUN Caerhun Estate Records, Catherine Hester (d. 1893) who married Richard Hemming (d. 1891) of Bentley Manor, Worcestershire, in 1846.

PROFESSOR OF BOTANY, CITY OF LONDON COLLEGE LONDON WEST, NEWMAN & CO 54 HATTON GARDEN 1893 LONDON PRINTED BY WEST, NEWMAN AND HATTON GAEDEN PEEFACE. A FEW words of explanation as to the object and scope of this Index may fitly appear as an introduction to the work. It is intended mainly as a guide to further information, and not as a bibliography or biography. We have been liberal in including all who have in any way contributed to the literature of Botany, who have made scientific collections of plants, or have otherwise assisted directly in the progress of Botany, exclusive of pure Horticulture. We have not, as a rule, included those who were merely patrons of workers, or those known only as contributing small details to a local Flora. Where known, the name is followed by the years of birth and death, which, when uncertain, are marked with a ? or c. [circa) ; or merely approximate dates of "flourishing" are given. Then follows the place and day of bu'th and death, and the place of burial ; a brief indication of social position or occupation, espe- cially in the cases of artisan botanists and of professional collectors; chief university degrees, or other titles or offices held, and dates of election to the Linnean and Eoyal Societies.

It follows a deep, fault-guided, glacial valley and contains significant flood plain and estuary areas. The upper (southern-most) section has a strong sense of containment by rising land, especially from the steep wooded slopes of Snowdonia to the west, from which a number of small rivers issue down tumbling gorges.

(formerly Caernarfonshire) NGR SH 759 722 Owners & Researchers : Frank Chambers & Jane Parry-Evans December 2012 © Crown copyright: Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales: Dating Old Welsh Houses: North West Wales Dendrochronology Project A report commissioned by The North West Wales Dendrochronology Project in partnership with The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments in Wales (RCAHMW). House History of Llanerch y Felin, Rowen Introduction Llanerch y Felin is reputed to be the oldest house in the village of Rowen. The Royal Commission on Ancient & Historical Monuments Vol (i) East dated the earliest parts of the house as being 1590. An extract from the volume is in the appendix. However research in the Cymryd papers has indicated that this date is either incorrect and or that there was an earlier house or houses on the same site. The earliest documented record of the property is in the Cymryd Papers in a lease dated 1565, held in Gwynedd Archives. An early photograph of the house indicates that there was a building to the West of the house. There was also evidence of an early building in the yard to Llanerch y Felin. Part constructed of stone this was in use as a garage/store until its demolition in 2011 to make way for a new entrance into the field. It is believed that this was once also a dwelling, and could be one of the two buildings referred to in the Cymryd lease.
