Angharad ferch Llywelyn (fl. 1260) was a daughter ofLlywelyn ab Iorwerth,Prince of Wales.[1][2] The identity of her mother is uncertain; but several later genealogical sources, includingPedigrees of Some Of the Emperor Charlemagne's Descendants, Volume III, compiled by J. Orton Buck and Timothy Field Beard, give Llywelyn's consortJoan, daughter of King John of England, as her mother.
Angharad is almost absent from contemporary records; however, she is mentioned in a document dated 1260, the year of her death and in sources recorded as married to Maelgwn Fychan.[3]
She married Maelgwn Fychan ofDeheubarth, a descendant of theLord Rhys, and had four children:[1]
Marared's daughter Angharad married Eleaonor's son Owain. Llywelyn, the son of this union, supposedly married Eleanor of Bar, an alleged daughter ofEleanor of England (King Edward I's daughter) andHenry the Count of Bar.[4] The son of Llywelyn was Thomas (orTomos) ap Llywelyn, among whose children were the sisters Ellen and Margaret; Ellen was the mother ofOwain Glyndŵr, while Margaret marriedTudur ap Goronwy, from whom theHouse of Tudor descend (Margaret thus being the great-great-grandmother ofKing Henry VII).[citation needed]
