Junior Branch, First Royal Dynasty of Wales

Seated on the northern march of Wales just south of Chester, this family represents a junior branch of the first Royal Dynasty of Powys. While careless genealogists equate the Cadell who sits atop its pedigree with the fifth century Cadell Ddyrnllwg, this family actually split from the royal line about the start of the seventh century.' ^[2]

— HLG 12 and ABT 9b make Tudor Trevor "ap Ynyr ap Cadfarch ap Gwrgeneu ap Gwaeddgar ap Bywyn ap Biordderch ap Gwriawn ap Gywnnan ap Gwnfyw Frych ap Cadell" and continue with the ancestry of Cadell Ddyrnllwg of c. 380. But the Cadell in this list would occur c. 580. ^[2]
