  Marriage Notes:

There are different versions concerning the wife of Payn de Turbeville, versions which nonetheless converge in a common ancestor.

1) "Pain Turberville" was granted "the lordship of Coetty…by marriage with Asar daughter of Meurug, son of Grufudd son of Iestin son of Gwrgan" by Robert FitzHamon after the death of Rhys ap Tewdwr in 1093. ¹

2) Sir Pagan de Turberville ... is reputed to have married Sybil, daughter of and heiress of Morgan ap Jestyn, whose name is preserved in the meadow of Siblewick, given by her to Neath Abbey. ²

3) After his overthrow, Sir Pain Turberville married, according to Caradoc, his [Iestyn's] great-grand-daughter,—namely, Asar, or Sarah, the daughter of Meryg, the son of Griffith, the son of Iestyn; but according to the records that immediately follow in this volume, and which are supported by several other testimonies in my possession, she was his great-great-grand-daughter; being the sole daughter and heiress of Morgan, the son of Meryg, the son of Griffith, the fourth son of Iestyn." ³

The third version correlates most closely with the first one; in the second, Morgan is shown as the son of Jestyn (i.e. Iestyn) rather than as his great-grandson.
