note A: referring to page 18
Lewis William Lloyd, second son of William Lloyd of Gorddinen, and uncle of the brother
of his father of the father of (ewythr o frawd ei dad i dad Mr John Jones) Mr John Jones
(Talsarn) (ie uncle of the brother of the father of John Jones Tan y Castell), was one of the early preachers amongst the Methodists in North Wales.
He was born in 1705, at Gorddinen, in Dolyddelen. He moved to live at a place called
Penbrynbrwynog, above Trefriw.

(the above seems to imply that John William Lloyd was half brother to Lewis's nephew?
I have probably misunderstood this, perhaps 'Ewythr o frawd ei dad i dad Mr John Jones' is intended to mean: 'uncle, from being the brother of the father, of the father of Mr John Jones', i.e. uncle of John Jones Tan y Castell; that would be right. )
