Hi Marilyn, I just found it listed still with Amazon.co.uk. You can go to Amazon.com and click on International, select 'United Kingdom', and search by author name "J. Gwynfor Jones" (I used just Gwynfor). It costs L 12.17, or about $20. It is still in print in England, so any English bookseller can order it.

Surnames: WINN - SPECK Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/FgWBAEB/655 Message Board Post: Hi: I am looking for information on William Eathen Winn b 1871 and married to Ellen Speck in 1903.

Below is a WINN/WYNN/WYNNE obituary that I noticed today on the web site for the Corsicana (Tex.) Daily Sun. Perhaps her late husband, Foley Wynn, is in a line of someone reading this list. I find interesting the fact that she had a granddaughter who had married a FORTSON. My connection to the WINN family is through my paternal grandmother, a FORTSON of Navarro County, Texas, whose great-great- great-grandparents were Thomas FORTSON Jr. (b. 1742) and Rachel WINN (b. ca. 1743). Here's the obit: ********** Sedalia Wynn Sedalia Wynn, 99, of Corsicana passed away Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2003 at Navarro Regional Hospital. Services will be 11 a.m. today at Sixth Avenue Baptist Church with Pastor K.D. Davis officiating. Interment will follow at Resthaven Memorial Park. Pallbearers will be deacons of First Independent Baptist Church. Mrs. Wynn was born Nov. 17, 1903 in Wortham. She was a devoted member of Sixth Avenue Baptist Church where she served in several departments. She was a homemaker and a cosmetologist. She was preceded in death by her husband, Foley Wynn; four brothers and three sisters. Survivors include her devoted son, Steve A. Wynn and wife Shirley; grandson, Adan Wynn; granddaughters, Tinisha L. Agramonte, La Lonni Leffall, Candace Fortson and Darnell Parr; sister, Beulah Dawson; devoted friends, Warner Redus and Marilyn "Tammy" Brown; and several nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. Arrangements by Scott Funeral Home. ********** Roger Bartlett Austin, Texas

Ok.. I think I have figured it out.... The book I purchased at Quintin Publications, Inc. was done by Askew Roberts of Croeswylan, Oswestry.. in 1878 This is what he says " The History of the Gwydir Family has been thrice published. The first edition edited by the Hon. Daines Barrington, issued from the press in 1770. the second was published by Mr. Barrington's Miscellanies in 1781; the third, edited by Miss Angharad Llwyd, made its appearance in 1827. The History of the Gwydir Family is the only one that gives any account of the state of society in North Wales in the 15th, and in the earlier part of the 16th centuries, but unfortunately, it is lamentably deficient in dates. The present edition owes its existence to the long and painsaking labour of the W.W. E. Wynne, Esq., of Peniarth, who has collated his copy of Miss Llwyd's edition with the Brogyniyn, Wynnstay, and Peniarth MSS., adding a very large collection of dates, from contempoary records, including the Minister's Accounts in the Public Record Office, in London. Mr. Wynne having very kindly placed his copy at my disposal, it has been my pleasant task during the last three or four months to superintend the issue of the present edition through the press, and I have most heartily to thank the Rev. Canon Williams, of Rhydycroesau, for his advice and assistance, without which several errors whould have passed uncorrected. .... and it goes... on then it is signed by Askew Roberts, Croeswylan, Oswestry. Hope this helps. Cuz B ttg-inc@attbi.com http://www.ttg-inc.net http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ttg13/
Dear Wynne/Winn friends. While I don't have any data on this Wynne family, I do know something about Francis Marion which might be helpful. I had to learn this to be promoted from the 3rd grade in South Carolina. I also had to learn some other SC historic trivia which I have totally forgotten. But Francis stuck, I think you will understand why when you read the next paragraph. Francis Marion was a Revolutionary hero from the SC low country. He was a Robin Hood type character who harrassed the British with a number of raids. He had been raised in the swampy area north of Charleston (now known as the Francis Marion National Forest) which he used as a hiding place for his small band of rebels. The British forces sent to find him got hopelessly confused in the swamp and never caught him, and he became known as the 'Swamp Fox'. I swear that I remember all of this from the 3rd grade, well over 50 years ago. It is unlikely that much was known about him outside South Carolina which leads me to suggest that Francis Marion Wynn must have been connected to the SC branch of the Wynns. Earl Earl

Hi All, Before anyone goes rushing off to get this Quinton repro of the 1878 edtion of Sir John's book, I would suggest that a more usable purchase of this work is a "Welsh Classics" edition, edited by J. Gwynfor Jones, the expert on this Wynn fmaily, because Jones' edition has an invaluable set of annotatations to explain and interpret the original. The original is actually not terribly useful -- I have one but while it is handsome, it is not very readable. J.G.Jones' edition has the features one needs to understand the importance of Sir John's history of his family. It is not expensive. Published in 1990 in hardback by Gomer Press at L. 14.95, I got it thru amazon.uk, I think. It should be in print because I suspect Dr. Jones uses it as a text in his Univ. of Wales courses. It also contains a 2nd item by Sir John called "Memoirs". The two texts are indexed and annotated together, so you get a ton of quickly accesible data and info. Good luck.

Back last winter [Jan-Feb time frame] I ordered the "The History of the Gwydir Family, Sir John Wynne.... from Quintin Publications...because it was out of print and could find no copies any where... they said it would be 40 days because they have to get authoization and also they have to scan the book in and or get a scanned copy from the LDS... they contacted me in August and said it was still in the works... Ok.. so now they have the book in their files so it should be the normal 10-20 days to get it... or faster if you want a cd of it... I paid $23.92 for book, tax and shipping and I received it today it is a spiral bound book with the original cover copied on to a tan card stock, and then the pages of the book copied and placed in side the spiral bindings and then the back cover is the tan card stock also.. so not bad for that price. IF you want a copy you might contact them. This is the Web page where you can order it.
