Pedigree and achievement, [1603x1614], of William Gruffyth [or Griffith], 'Justice of the peace and corum of the Cittie and Libertie of Westminster and of the Countie of Middlesex, and Sergeant of Armes to the Kinge', compiled by Rhys Cain, containing sixteen other fully painted and impaled coats of arms.
The pedigree traces William's ancestry through fourteen generations, in the male line only, via the Griffiths of Penrhyn and Ednyfed Vachan [Fychan], to Ednyfed's grandfather Ierwerth ap Gwgon; in addition, Ierwerth's descent from Koel Godeboc is recorded in a cartouche at the head of the pedigree. William's uncle Pyrs [or Piers] Griffith, the last of the family to own Penrhyn, is also included, as are William's six siblings and seven children, presented without heraldry. The achievement, with nine quarterings, is placed at the foot of the pedigree, between depictions of the two alternative crests with which it was associated. The pedigree is based on the work of Guttyn Owain, Gruffydd Hiraethog, Ieuan Brechva and William Llyn, as noted at various points in the margins. The roll is an example of style 3 in M. P. Siddons, Welsh Pedigree Rolls (Aberystwyth, 1996), pp. 11-12. William and his parents, siblings and children are not recorded among the descendants of Sir Rhys Griffith (d. 1580) in J. E. Griffith, Pedigrees of Anglesey and Carnarvonshire Families (Horncastle, 1914), p. 185.

Commentaries on the pedigree are written within nine cartouches, mostly ornamented.

Pedigree and achievement, dated 1637, of the Watkins family of Usk, Monmouthshire, with fifty-one fully painted coats of arms, mostly impaled, apparently compiled by Walter Hopkins of Brecon.
The pedigree shows the Watkins family's descent, in four parallel lines, from Bennett Pencla[w]dd [Sir Bennet de Penclawdd], lord of Kilfigyn [Cilfeigan, near Usk], as well as Kydifor Vawr of Kilsant, Barnard Newmarch [Bernard de Neufmarché] and Iestyn ap Gwrgan[t], down to the brothers William and Thomas Watkins of Usk (both alive 1637); some collateral branches are also noted. An inscription concerning Bennett Penclawdd is inserted in a cartouche at the beginning of the pedigree, with a further inscription, mostly illegible, on the dorse. Several roundels, for the Watkins brothers's wives and immediate descendants, have been left blank; two escutcheons have been added below the last generation and then carefully erased with white paint; the roll also retains pencil markings used to sketch out the pedigree before painting. A missing individual ('Gronow Benet') has been interpolated in a later seventeenth-century hand. The pedigree is an example of 'Style 3' in Michael Powell Siddons, Welsh Pedigree Rolls (Aberystwyth, 1996), pp. 11-12.
