Many of these records appear to derive from Florence Allen, daughter of Thomas Allen of Freestone, Pembrokeshire. Florence Allen married Sir Thomas Mansel Franklen (1840-1928), clerk of the peace for Glamorgan and first clerk of Glamorgan County Council. The second donation relates mainly to the Ackland Allen family derived from Elgiva Mary Ackland-Allen, wife of F.L.M. Giles, and her daughter Elizabeth Giles.
