His son, Sir RICHARD GREY of Pool (born at Pontesbury, 5 November 1436; died 17 December 1466), described as ' dominus de Powes,' swore allegiance in Parliament to Henry VI, 24 July 1455.

teulu GRIFFITH PENRHYN, ., ii, 147; Cal. Pat. Rolls, 1485-94, 5). His record suggests that he followed very closely the lead of his kinsman, the time-serving earl of Derby, and a poem by Lewis Môn proves that immediately before Bosworth he shared with lord Strange, Derby's heir, his perilous imprisonment at Nottingham as hostage for his father's all-too-uncertain loyalty; presumably, he shared, too, the same narrow escape
GRIFFITH(S), DAVID (1726 - 1816), cleric and schoolmaster , Llanfaes, Brecknockshire, christened there 5 June 1726.

GRIFFITH, ELIZABETH (1727 - 1793), author plays after 1765, of which The School for Rakes (1769) was, and is, the most rewarding.

Her children were Richard (1752 - 1820) and Catherine.
GRIFFITH, JOHN (1752 - 1818), Independent minister Born 10 May 1752 near Pencader, was at Carmarthen (School and Academy) from 1774 (perhaps from 1771) to 1778. On 5 July 1780 he was ordained minister at Llanfyllin, a town in which he had to face great opposition. He removed in 1782 to Pendref church in Caernarvon town, and thence in 1784 to Abergavenny. This was a difficult church; a schism took place (c. 1786); the opposition kept its hold on

GRIFFITH, OWEN (Ywain Meirion, Owen Gospiol; 1803 - 1868), ballad-writer and strolling ballad-singer If we could be quite certain that he was the man who under the pseudonym Owen Meirion wrote the article on the history of Bala, in Y Brython, 1860, 264-5, we could say that he was born at Bala. He sang in fairs all over Wales - he is heard of, e.g. at Machynlleth, Holywell, Llanfyllin, Llanrwst, and the Caernarvonshire fairs, and he was very well known in South Wales. He always wore a top-hat
