Hello, Martin
Thanks for slipping Tewdrig back into his correct ancestery. Other than Jesus College MS 20, he has five or six other pedigrees, all of them trying to fit him into a British lineage. The key, as John Morris noted, was his father Theithfallt. Morris spelled it as "Thiudebald" which is actually West Germanic (Frankish), but the correct name would have been "Thiedebalth" in Gothic, or "the bold prince." This is unsubstantiated, albeit accurate, and cannot be Wiki-fied. It'll be interesting how long your addition remains on the Wiki article. mile:
