Descent From Jeuan Ap Maredudd (died C.1402) To William Lewis Annwill (died 1642)

• Jeuan ap Maredudd (died c.1402) = Lucy verch Hywel Sele, Lord of Nannau
• Maredudd ab Jeuan (f.1420) = Angharad verch Einion ab Ithel sef aeres Rhiwaedog
• Sion (John) ap Maredudd (f.1485) = Gwenhwyvir ferch Goronwy ab Ieuan o Gollwyn

According to Philip Yorke;

"To John ab Maredudd his kindred and friends cleaved steadfastly, like courageous men: so then it began to be a proverb or phrase, to call the family of Owain Gwynedd Tylwyth John ab Maredudd, the race of John ab Maredudd."

• Morys ap Sion ap Maredudd (died c.1511) = Angharad verch Elisau ap Gruffydd ab Einion
• Robert ap Morys o'r Parc (d.1576) = Lowry verch Lewis ab Ieuan ap Dafydd

From Robert ap Morys the family were known as the Anwyl of Parc Family, after their abode near Penrhyndeudraeth at this time.

• Lewis Anwyl (ap Robert) (1535–1605) = Elizabeth verch Morys ab Ieuan ap Sion ap Maredudd o Frynkyr

• William Lewis Anwyl of Park (c.1565 – 1642), magistrate, High Sheriff of Merionethshire 1611 and 1624 and High Sheriff of Caernarvonshire 1637 = Elizabeth, eldest daughter and coheiress of Edward Herbert, of Maes Machre, Cemmaes, Anglesey.

William Lewis Annwill had his pedigree certified by William Hughes and John Davies in 1611 which was then included in the work Heraldic Visitations of the Three Counties of North Wales above Conway by Lewis Dwnn (completed 1613). This was copied and printed in 1846 by Sir Samuel Rush Meyrick and then reprinted in 2005.
