Strictly speaking, Llywelyn was "Prince of North Wales"
[Gwynedd] only until 1230, after which time he was titled
"Prince of Aberffraw and Lord of Snowdon", but the more familiar
style is used here. Llywelyn's son Dafydd was actually the
first "Prince of Wales".
His ancestry, almost entirely Welsh, however, was descended from
the famous Lady Godiva and her husband and so had Anglo-Saxon
ancestry. See Frederick Lewis Weis, Ancestral Roots of Sixty
Colonists (5th ed. by Walter Lee Sheppard, Jr., F.A.S.G.,
Baltimore, 1976)(abbreviated AR), line 176. The connection
questioned by this source is verified by WG, infra note 16, at
Tr. ap C. 1. Llywelyn was also descended from Olaf, King of
Dublin, grandson of the famous King of Ireland Brian of the
Tributes, and so also had Norse and Irish ancestry. David H.
Kelley, F.A.S.G., "The Ancestry of Eve of Leinster", The
Genealogist 1:4-27 at 13 (1980); see also AR, line 239."
"The purpose of my article was to show that the commonly
ascribed maternity of Llywelyn Fawr's daughters, i.e., that most
if not all of his daughters were also daughters of his wife
Joan, daughter of King John of England, is unsupported and that
the mother of these daughters must be shown as "unknown".
Later, in the same periodical, vol. 4, no. 2 (Fall 1983), pp.
137-138, Andrew B. W. MacEwen proved that the daughter Elen who
married the Earl of Chester and later Robert de Quincy was a
daughter of Joan." from William Addams Reitwiesner

Sources disagree on the name of the mother of Gruffydd, some say
it is Gwenllian.

"Further information on Llywelyn ap Iorwerth's marriages. Glyn
Burgess in his book Two Medieval Outlaws, (published by Brewer

FitzWaryn. The romance says that Fouke's daughter Eve (by
Fouke's second wife Clarice d'Auberville) married Llywelyn
after the death of Joan."

Bio: . Llywelyn ap Iorwerth
Llywelyn ap Iorwerth, (Llywelyn Fawr or Llywelyn the Great:
1173-1240) can justly be called the greatest of the medieval
Welsh kings. By 1202, he had taken advantage of the quarrels of
his uncles and had become ruler of the kingdom of Gwynedd.
Further successes in Deheubarth, after the death of the Lord
Rhys, and in Powys made him the most powerful of all the Welsh
rulers, though it was Gruffudd ap Llwyelyn who is remembered as
the only native monarch to rule over all of Wales. In 1205 he
married King John of England's daughter, Joan, and helped his
father-in-law in a campaign against King William of Scotland. By
1210 the situation had changed dramatically. John invaded
Gwynedd, Llywelyn being forced to retreat to the mountainous
areas to the West.
When John found himself embroiled in struggles with his Barons
and the Pope, Llywelyn was able to reassert his authority in
North Wales. In 1216, he presided over a Welsh Parliament at
which he was acknowledged as overlord of all other native Welsh
rulers, a position confirmed at the Peace of Worcester in 1218,
by Henry III. The achievements of Llywelyn were many. Before he
died in 1240 as a monk at Aberconwy monastery, he had inspired a
revision of the Laws of Hywel Dda. His reorganization of the
administrative machinery of Wales, his maintenance of cordial
relations with the Pope and the English Church, and the bringing
of an era of peace and prosperity to the territories under his
control were all testaments to his remarkable diplomatic and
military skills. It is no wonder that his achievements on behalf
of his people were widely celebrated by Welsh poets.
