  (D) Morgan of Pentremorgan had issue
  e. Eva
  ii. Grono "pefr" (the handsome) of Whittington
iii. Owain
  The following connections come from BE1883 (Trevor) which, unlike some sources which indicate that it was Owain's son (also called Owain) who married Eva, reports that it was this Owain (ap Blethin or Bleddyn) who married Eva. This is confirmed by Griffith's Pedigrees (Brynkinallt (p254) & 'Downing & Bychton' (p214) & 'Trevors' (p379)).

The following comes from Griffith's Pedigrees (Brynkinallt (p254) & 'Downing & Bychton' (p214)).
2. Elidir
3. Iddon of Dudleston
  The following comes from Commoners (vol 2, Vaughan of Burlton Hall) but note that an alternative ancestry for Hwfa ap Trehayan is shown above. Commoners shows this Iddon as married to Alice, dau of Sir John Done of Utkinton by Elizabeth, dau of Sir William Butler of Warrington. However, we find no such connection on Done1.
  A. Trehayarn of Dudliston
  Commoners shows as m. Ellen, dau of Sir Jeffrey Cornwall, 'Baron of Burford'. See note above.
  i. Hwfa of Dudliston probably confused with Hwfa ap Trahaern (Trahayne) of Dudleston ap Iddon ap Rhys Sais above ##
4. Eva
  m. Ednowain ap Ithel, of Bryn
5.+ other issue - Bleddyn, Generis
