Enfant(s):
>Right family. Sir John Hay Williams was the lord of the manor of
Bodelwyddan
>in 1844. It was formerly possessed by an ancient family named Humphries,
>from who it was purchased by the celebrated Sir William Williams, speaker
of
>the House of Commons in the last two parliaments of Charles II. Sir
William
>was appointed Solicitor-General in the following reign and became a Welsh
>judge. At this time in his life, he was reported to have more talent than
>wealth, though his wit and manners were well appreciated. During one of
his
>circuits he was present at a ball where his dance partner was the daughter
of
>a man of large property; Watkin Kyffyn, Esq. After the dance, Sir William
>declared his heart and was accepted. It was her family wealth that allowed
>him to purchase Bodelwyddan.
>
>It is possible that you have found the name of her mother.

>Yes, I do mean the marble church. I was just there last month. It is in a
>strange setting being just off the highway, but I suppose its surrounds did
>not look like that when it was first built. The inside is actually very
>plain when compared to some of the churches I have been in, even here in
>California, but I must say it was a peaceful visit and walking the family
>vaults around it was an experience. It is very well kept. Unfortunately,
>there was no one present at the time of my visit to offer any answers to my
>questions. I did tromp on over to St. Asaph, which was the parish site
>before the marble church was built, but there were no grave references for
>Lady Sarah. I suppose it could be possible that your Lady Sarah and mine
are
>the same. Louisa was not prone to giving full names for references which
has
>been very frustrating from time to time. I do know that the Lady Sarah she
>talks about had a great deal of interest in Botany and was actually quite
>well known for her knowledge. The day she and Louisa traveled to Denbigh,
>Lady Sarah collected many different samples and took them back to Bod. for
>transplantation.
