General Notes: Husband - 5th Barton Edward Williams

Of Langoed Hall. Sir Edward was 5th Baronet of Eltham & Gwernyfed. The Williams family moved their headquarters from Gwernyfed to Llangoed Hall in Powys, South Wales in about the 1730's. The family is said to have lost the manor in a gambling bout during the Regency Period (1811 -1820). Concerning Llangoed, see https://www.llangoedhall.co.uk/history/ . According to the Cardiff Times, April 6, 1894, pg. 3, he was High Sherriff of Breconshire in 1768.

According to David Barratt, For many years Sir Edward Williams 5^th Bt. had been plagued by financial problems and had borrowed extensively against the security of the estate. By 1790 he owed at least £24,000, with interest at 5%. [in 2018 multiply this figure by 75 - David Barratt] By 1791 Sir Edward had decamped from from Llangoed and taken up residence at Clifton Wood, near Bristol. Perhaps he thought the atmosphere at Clifton more suitable for his eyes, which had latterly become sore, than that at LLangoed.

In 1795 Sir Edward, who had to cope with a somewhat feckless and argumentative son, also named Edward, tried to sell the Gwernyfed estate. The estate included LLangoed itself and stretched from valleys on the south side of the Black Mountains to the Epynt, from Cathedine to the parish of Hay, and into Llanstephan in Radnorshire, though did not include every property in those areas.

At the time, with much unrest in France and consequent uncertainty at home, selling proved difficult, but in 1796 he struck a deal with John Macnamara, a wealthy London gentleman.

The deal was complicated and involved the outright sale of that part of the estate not owned or controlled by trustees for a capital sum of £39,000, with a payment of £8,000 to Mary Wood (his daughter), as well as two annuities. Other parts of the estate were to be leased to Macnamara for an annual rent of £1,600 on 'a lease for three lives'.

There were many other clauses, and lengthy torturous law suits followed as to which parts of the estate had been sold, which leased and which retained, which took some 30 years to resolve
