| According to Darrell Wolcott. . . .
Idnerth ap Cadwgan ap Elystan, born c. 1050, had as his share of his father's lands the commotes of Ceri, Maelienydd and Elfael. On his death in the first quarter of the twelfth century, his son Madog (ob 1140) inherited all three of those commotes. However, claims to this territory were being pressed by the Normans. In the 1080's, Cadwgan had lost Hereford to the Normans and now Idnerth's purely Welsh portion (west of Offa's Dyke) of the old kingdom of Fferlys was invaded by Ralph Mortimer. Based at Wigmore in Herefordshire, this Mortimer brought his army into Maelienydd about 1093 and built a castle at Cymaran (Cwm Aeron). But in 1100, Mortimer was banished to France by Henry I and Idnerth was able to reclaim his lost territory and pass it on intact to his son, Madog.
Reportedly founded the Abbey of Cwmhir, but this seems unlikely because it was not built until 1143. I suspect that it was actually founded by his 3 grandsons, the sons of his son Madog
"The Cistercian Abbey of Cwmhir, a daughter house of Blessed Virgin Mary of Whitland, was constructed in 1143 by three sons of Madog, the then Prince of southern Powys. However the first community failed because of the intervention of Hugh de Mortimer, Earl of Hereford. The advance of this Norman Earl in the harsh centre uplands of Wales caused the then resident monks at the time to withdraw to their mother house at Whitland" |

I was assuming that Iorwirth anf Ieuaf are the same, but I gather from Philip Beddows that they are distinct names, so looks like yet another son! |

And then Llywelyn ap Cadwgan was slain by the men of Brycheiniog.
Lord of Builth, co Radnor
As the twelfth century progressed it soon became evident that most military assemblages had more than their fair quota of 'armed Welshmen'. This was never truer than in the wars of King Stephen 's unfortunate reign and the question must be asked as to how were these armed Welshmen raised and what form did the Welsh community possess under Norman rule? The question however is not so easily answered.
It was in this period of enforced 'peace' that Llywelyn ap Cadwgan ab Elystan Glodrydd finally met his end, killed in a border feud by the men of Brycheiniog who were unfortunately not named by the chroniclers.
Were these killers Norman, English or Welsh? Probably we will never know, but Llywelyn has left us one last lingering memento. Minted at Carmarthen for William Rufus was a silver penny which bore the legend 'Llywelyn ap Cadwgan, Rex'. This is the only known coin of a Welsh king and it is intriguing that it should have been minted by a man whose descendants went on to become the leading uchelwyr of Brycheiniog and Buellt. |
