-----------------------------

Hanes bywgraffyddol/gweinyddol: The Ynysymaengwyn estate was owned by the Wynnes until the death of Humphrey Wynne (alive in 1570) when the estate passed to his daughter Elizabeth who married Sir James Pryse of Gogerddan, Cardiganshire. Their sole heiress was Bridgett Pryse who in or around 1612 married Robert Corbet of Moreton Corbet, Shropshire. The eldest son and heir of this marriage was Vincent Corbett who apparently disinherited his son Thomas Vincent Corbett so that the estate passed to his sisters Ann, who married Athelstan Owen of Rhiwsaeson, Montgomeryshire, and Jane who married, firstly, Thomas Price of Esgairweddan and, secondly, Hugh Wynn, rector of Dolgellau. 2

  Marriage Information:

Vincent married Anne VAUGHAN, daughter of William VAUGHAN of Cors-y-gedol and Anne NANNEY. (Anne VAUGHAN was born about 1656 in Cors-y-gedol, Llanddwywe, Merioneth, Wales and died shortly before 9 Feb 1731/2 in Ynysmaengwyn, Towyn, Merionethshire, Wales.)
