Research Notes
He appears in a pedigree of Pughe, of Mathavarn, in Cyveilog, reaching back to biblical Adam, presented by Lewys Dwnn. The pedigree illustrates the fondness of the Welsh for pedigrees as well as the difficulty of determining at what point the pedigree moves from history to legend. [2]
The pedigree also appears in a work by the Powys-land Club.[3]
The complete pedigree is presented and discussed at Space: John Pughe's Descent from Adam
