Research notes
✓ ANARAWD AP RHODRI (d.916), King of GWYNEDD, founder of the first dynasty of Gwynedd; son of RHODRI MAWR (I99873, already in the tree); father of Idwal Foel (our line). This rung LOOPS the whole Mortimer-Gwynedd descent onto the existing Rhodri Mawr - so BOTH great Welsh royal lines in this tree, Deheubarth and Gwynedd, now converge on Rhodri the Great. Source: the standard Gwynedd royal genealogy (Bartrum/Dictionary of Welsh Biography), web-confirmed 6 Aug 2026; these are the documented medieval Welsh king-lists, generally accepted by historians; contested rungs note-only, not hardened.
