Anwyl of Tywyn family

Anwyl of Towyn Family descend in the male line from Rhodri ab Owain Gwynedd (Prince of Upper Gwynedd c.1175 - 1195) to the present day and as such are the de jure Princes of Gwynedd and the legal representatives by Welsh law of the House of Aberffraw and Cunedda. If Wales had not been conquered by England in 1283 and the native offices and titles not abolished then the male representatives of the Anwyl of Towyn Family would represent the living Royal Family of Wales and the direct patrilineal successors of Rhodri Mawr, King of the Britons.

Descent from Owain Gwynedd from 1171 to 1611
