    1. [GRIFFITH] 1400s/Wales>1600s/Virginia/GRIFFITH and marriages
    2. Hello, Does anyone happen to have the ancestry of Rowland/Roland GRIFFITH, born: Abt. 1605, died: 1671 in Isle of Wight County, Virginia, who was the father of Jane GRIFFITH, born: Abt. 1650 in New Port Parish, Isle of Wight County, Virginia, died: Abt. 1719 in New Port Parish, Isle of Wight County, Virginia, who married in 1671 in Isle of Wight County, Virginia to Michael DESLOGES, born: Abt. 1645 in England, died: Abt. 1710 in Isle of Wight county, Virginia, who were the ancestors of descendants with spellings of DeLOACH(E) and other variations that married into my PIERCE and MYRICK families and other connecting families including the GOODWIN families that married into the aforementioned and BRAMBLETT/BRAMLET(T) and other connecting families. I am also very interested in whether/how this Rowland/Roland GRIFFITH and Jane GRIFFITH of Wales connect to the GRIFFITH family group of Sage GRIFFITH/Sage ferch Griffith, born: 1521 in Bodorgan, Anglesey, Wales, who was the daughter of Maud LOYD and James GRIFFITH who was the son of Sage THOMAS, born: 1465, and Howell GRIFFITH, born: 1461 in Bodorgan, Anglesey, Wales. This Sage GRIFFITH/Sage ferce Griffith married (Sir) John MEYRICK/MERRICK, (later on MYRICK mostly in U.S. and mostly in Southern U.S. but some in North and the original Welsh spelling was MEURIG/MEURIC,) born: Abt. 1513 in Llandachya/Llandegai, Wales, died: in Anglesey, Wales, who was the son of the High Sheriff of Bodorgan, Anglesey, Wales who was also the Captain of the Guard and personal guardian for the coronation of his cousin, Henry VIII, (King of England,) and his name was (Captain) Meurig/Meyrick ap Llewelyn, (aka Llewellyn,) born: 1483 in Bodorgan, Anglesey, Wales, died: November 30, 1538 in Anglesey, Wales, and his wife, Margaret/Margared verch (Syr) Roland, born: Abt. 1485 in Aberffrwa, Anglesey, Wales, md: Abt. 1502, daughter of (Syr/Sir) Roland ap Hywel/Howell, (Rector of Abberfraw in Anglesey, Wales.) And interested in how these two GRIFFITH lines from Wales shown above may have connected with the GRIFFITH family group of Agnes GRIFFITH, born: Abt. 1520 in North Wales, daughter of (Sir) William GRIFFITH, born: Abt. 1495 in North Wales, (I believe,) son of Jane STRADLING and husband, (Sir) William GRIFFITH, born: Abt. 1475 in Perhyn, Wales, died: 1531. This Agnes GRIFFITH was the wife of Hugh LEWIS, I/Sr., born: Abt. 1515 in North Wales, son of Elizabeth VAUGHN, born: Abt. 1500, and John LEWIS, (Esquire,) born: Abt. 1500 in Wales, son of Janet BULKEL(E)Y, born: Abt. 1480, and Janet's husband, Hugh LEWIS/Hugh Lewis Hen or Hugh ap Lewis Hen/Hugh Lewis, who was born: Abt. 1480, son of Margery/Margary "Mali" verch Ievan/Ifan Loyd/Lloyd. Looking forward to hearing from anyone who might know more information about these GRIFFITHs and how these GRIFFITH families connect. Thanks very much. Sincerely, Bellinda Myrick-Barnett
