RN #215 Our Family's Genealogy by Welsh Counties

Genealogy by geography is the real title of the content contained in this notebook.  From the beginning of the family tree (at first pass) was Tudor Trevor [Tydyr Trefor] (JC-1).  The origin and descent of this tree concentrated in several Welsh counties.   The family surnames and major Welsh county was studied and grouped.  The results were placed in this notebook.  They are as follows:

Denbighshire
     Trevor
     Salberie
     Trevalyn
      Llwynon
     Bruerton
     Plas Kadwgan
     Eton (Eyton)
     Pulston
     Lloyd

Flintshire
     Moiston
     Hanmer
     Dymock
     Trevor
     Eytyn (Eton)
     Tydyr Trefor
     Thomas Pennat - Abbot of Basingwerk Abbey

Salop (Shropshire)
     Oswestry
     Selattyn
     Whittington
     Linley

Chester
     Crewe

......and many other surnames connected to geographic locations.  A sample page from the county Salop is shown below.

 This analysis helped group and separate several surnames and their relationship among the branches of my JONES family tree.
