      REMARKS: "Lewys Glyn Cothi says of this Morgan, that he drained lands with the materials which he found in Trev Goch, near Dolaucothi, in Carmarthenshire, the ruins of a Roman town. Of this tribe the Bard informs us the families were so numerous that 'There are twelve families in Cayo, And each family consists of eight or nine.' " (Dwnn, Heraldic Visitations of Wales, vol. 1 p. 220 fn. 10)
