Myddelton family of Plas Cadwgan pedigree roll

Heraldic pedigree roll, [c. 1628], of the Myddelton family of Plas Cadwgan, parish of Esclusham Below, Denbighshire (see W. D. Pink, Notes on the Middleton Family, of Denbighshire & London ([s.l.], 1891), pp. 10-11, and A. N. Palmer, History of the Thirteen Country Townships of the Old Parish of Wrexham (Wrexham, 1903), pp. 12-14).
The pedigree represents the descent of the family from Cunedda Wledig and Bleddyn ap Cynfyn to the children of Captain Roger Myddelton (d. 1642), three of whose sons are described as 'now livinge 1628', and contains some sixty painted coats of arms. It was probably compiled by Jacob Chaloner; further entries, including one dated 1654, were added, mid-seventeenth century, in a current hand to complete damaged portions of text. A shield or achievement at the bottom of the roll is now missing, with only the top part of the crest remaining.
