Hello Roger, and yes I created the jeffreys family.blogspot.com site. Thanks for the comments. I spent a lot of time on Lewis of Pant Hywel and Tirpaum in trying to make the connections to Daniel Thomas and Martha (Lewis) Thomas. Margaret and Dan Thomas who occupy Llywnyfron told me "their grandmother was a Jeffreys." but I've never figured this out or if it's true. Their family rented Llwynyfron from my great grandfather before purchasing it about 1886. My great grandpa had lost his first wife, and was re-marrying a young girl half his age. She wanted a grand estate so he sold Llwynyfron to the Thomas family and purchased Cynghordy Hall near Llandovery. I was fascinated with Llwynyfron. It was so charming and appeared completely unchanged since the 18th century. American troops had encamped there during WWII. When they came back decades later, they said the house had not changed.
I was going to attach some photos of Lewis monuments but the site here won't let me. If you know if there's a connection please let me know. Thank you. Bradley Jeffreys, Dallas, Texas
