death recorded in Irish annals. Reasonably certain that he was a historical
figure, however there are suspicious features in the earlier pedigree. The
family claimed descent from Mailcun (modern welsh Maelgwn Gwynedd), a
contemporary of the author Gildas (5th or 6th century) whose exact chronology
is uncertain. The obituary of Maelgwn which appears in Annales Cambriae is a
late fabrication, so the Annales Cambriae cannot be used to deduce a date for
Gildas. [Ref: Stewart Baldwin 6/29/97]
