He was a Captain of the Guard at the Coronation of Henry VIII, April 25, 1509. He was the first high Sheriff of County Anglesey, which office he held until his death. From him the surname "Meyrick", signifying "Guardian", is derived as a surname, in pursuance to an act of Henry VIII, requiring that the name of every man at the time should be born by his descendants as a surname. There were no surnames before that time in Wales. He married Margaret, daughter of Roland, Rector of Aberffraw, Anglesey, Wales. His will is dated Nov. 30, 1538.
