Llywelyn ap Dafydd
Llywelyn ap Dafydd (c.1267–1287), potential claimant to the title Prince of Gwynedd , was the eldest son of Dafydd ap Gruffydd, the last free ruler of Gwynedd, and his wife Elizabeth Ferrers.
Nothing is known of his early life, though it is thought he was probably born some time around 1267.
It is likely he accompanied his father during periods of exile in England in the 1270s.
Following the death of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd on 11 December 1282 the governance of Gwynedd was placed in the hands of Llywelyn's successor, his brother, Dafydd ap Gruffudd.
Dafydd and his son Owain were captured together at Nanhysglain near to Bera Mawr in the uplands above Abergwyngregyn on 21 June 1283.
King Edward I of England then issued orders for the apprehension of the primogeniture of Dafydd ap Gruffudd.
On 29 June, Llywelyn ap Dafydd was arrested and taken to Rhuddlan to be imprisoned alongside his brother.
A force of cavalry and infantry were deployed to escort Llywelyn and Owain out of Gwynedd via Acton Burnell in Shropshire to Bristol before the end of July 1283.
After his father was executed for high treason in October 1283, he became the "de jure" Prince of Gwynedd.
The only senior members of the Welsh royal family who retained their liberty were Llywelyn ap Dafydd's uncle Rhodri ap Gruffudd and cousin Thomas ap Rhodri, who had formally renounced their rights to the Principality.
Llywelyn ap Dafydd died at Bristol Castle in 1287 and was buried in the nearby Dominican church (now known as Quakers Friars).
His burial was paid for by King Edward I.
His brother Owain would "succeed" him but would remain a prisoner until the end of his life.
Owain ap Dafydd
Owain ap Dafydd , potential claimant to the title Prince of Gwynedd , was the younger son of Dafydd ap Gruffydd, the last free ruler of Gwynedd and the self-proclaimed Prince of Wales.
Nothing is known of his early life, though it is thought likely he accompanied his father during periods of exile in England in the 1270s.
His mother was Elizabeth Ferrers.
After the death of his uncle Llywelyn
ap Gruffudd in late 1282, the governance of Gwynedd was assumed by his father Dafydd ap Gruffudd.
He and his father were captured together, after a brief struggle, close to Cadair Idris on 21 or 22 June 1283.
Shortly after this, Dafydd was brought to Shrewsbury where he was executed for treason in October.
Following the arrest of his elder brother Llywelyn on 29 June, they were both escorted under guard out of Gwynedd via Acton Burnell to Bristol Castle.
Llywelyn died in 1287 while Owain was last reported to be alive in 1325 when he would have been in his fifties.
During much of his captivity at Bristol – and we must assume the same treatment, or worse, for his brother – he was kept in a cage to ensure there was no means of escape.
Order from King Edward I to the Constable of Bristol Castle, October 1305:
"As the King wills that Owain son of Dafydd ap Gruffudd, who is in the Constable’s custody in the castle, should be kept more securely than he has been previously, he orders the Constable to cause a strong house within the castle to be repaired as soon as possible, and to make a wooden cage bound with iron in that house in which Owain might be enclosed at night."
The exact date and circumstances of his death are not known.
