Stradling Name Study: Stradling Athenaeum
Within St. Donat's Castle Sir Edward Stradling (abt.1529-1609) amassed a library of manuscripts, books, and documents in British (Welsh), English, and Latin that was said to be the greatest library in all of Wales, rivaling those of the great houses across Britain. Sadly, that literary treasure was lost to the ages. This Stradling Athenaeum honours Sir Edward's 16th century antiquarian pursuits and life-long love of historic literature, by acting as a 21st century repository of online books, manuscripts, texts, and publications proven beneficial to our global Stradling family research. Some volumes contain singular Stradling entries and others entire ancient pedigrees. Each contributes to our greater understanding of our shared Stradling family history.

Pedigrees
Amongst these pedigrees you will find numerous referring to Stradling origins in the legend of "The Twelve Knights of Glamorgan". Please read such pedigrees with the understanding that Sir John de Stratelinges (abt.1240-bef.1294) remains the earliest recorded Stradling in England, having arrived with King Edward I on his return from campaigns on the continent. Crown records show Sir John's son, Sir Peter de Stratelinges (abt.1260-abt.1300), only acquired St. Donat's via his marriage to Joan de Hawey near the end of the 13th century. Accordingly, Stradling involvement with the "Twelve Knights" legend was more likely embellishment to project unbroken Stradling hereditary rite for what they grew from a manor-house into St. Donat's Castle over centuries.
