Note: None are rated for moveable goods and most are (perhaps a little suspiciously) rated at the minimum level for land, but three stand out as clearly wealthier than the rest: - - - Morgan William, William - - - Morgan and John Powell ap Llewellyn. The first two of these names come at the head of the list, but the last of the three is much lower, so it is possible that this also represents a division between Llanfihangel Crucorney and Llangattock Lingoed. There is reference to a John Powell ap Llewellyn in a deed of 1594.
