     Place:   Eglwysbach, Denbighshire

Individual Note:
     There are three entries for burials of William in the PR these being 1698, 1725 and1728. According to the Local Historian notes the householder of Pen Y Bryn in 1699 was Roger Holland therefore it seems likely that William of Pen Y Bryn died in 1698, this is confirmed by the fact that we have an administration bond(SA/1699/31) where MaryThomas of Pennant and Ralph Holland are named as administrators. In this case Pennant could be reference to the area rather than the House, and probably indicates that Mary Thomas was his widow. The death of Ralph Holland is recorded as 1752.

It seems reasonable to assume that William inherited the Pen Y Bryn estate by virtue of him being named the son and heir in Owen's Will, however no independent data has come to light to confirm this. His birth is recorded in the PR as William son of Owen and Ellen Foulkes b 8th Dec 1649. We have no indication as to who he married, however there is an entry for the baptism of Ralph son of William, 18th Nov1676.
Looking across the family tree there are no other Williams of appropriate age to have been the father. There are three entries for burials of William in the PR these being 1698, 1725 and 1728. According to the Local Historian notes the householder of Pen Y Brynin 1699 was Roger Holland therefore it seems likely that William of Pen Y Bryn died in 1698. The deaths of the other two Williams can be attributed to William ap Humphrey of Pennant b 1678 ,William ap Roger of Pen Y Bryn b 1678, or William ap William of Bryn Y Fran b1724. The later date would have had to apply to William ap Roger for him to have fathered his son Hugh in 1727. The death of Ralph Holland is recorded as 1752.
