Volume II of our family history continues the story begun in Bronwylfa: a house and its family, which covered the 17th to the 20th centuries. This second book begins in 1400 and ends in 1667 with the death of Margaret Owen, our last direct ancestor to live at Peniarth. It starts with the builder of Peniarth, Griffith ab Aron, and chronicles the family's adventures in the very dangerous centuries which followed, especially the fifteenth century when they were personally involved with Owain Glyndwr's rebellion, Agincourt, the Wars of the Roses and the many conspiracies which preceded Henry VII's succession to the British throne. The sixteenth century saw them suspected of Catholic sympathies, and in the seventeenth century they fell foul of the Parliamentary government, while, however, producing a Puritan preacher admired by Oliver Cromwell, and Hugh Owen, the "Apostle of the North".
