Notes

Microfilm of original manuscript which is part of the Castell Gorfod Collection at the National Library of Wales, Aberystwyth.

"An heraldic and genealogical collection relating to Wales and settlers therein made early in the 18th century by Hugh Thomas, Deputy Herald to Garter King of Arms in 1703 ... The notes by a later hand in these volumes are believed to have been inserted by Theophilus Jones."

The original manuscript was arranged in books labeled Book A, B, C, D, G, I, K, L, M, and N. Once bound in the Library of Wales, they became Books 1-21. (An extensive index at the beginning of film no. 104,349 lists what is contained in Books A-N.) Books A, D, G, I, K, and L are divided into more than one bound volume. Additional microfilmed pages from books B and G can be found under: Advenae of Pembrokeshire from the Golden Grove mss.
