CHARLES LLOYD (I) was born in 1613. He enlarged the house at Dolobran and married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Stanley of Knockyn, who is stated to have been an authority on genealogy. He died comparatively young, and was buried at Meifod 17 August 1657, leaving three sons, CHARLES (born 9 December 1637), JOHN (born 1638), and THOMAS (born 17 February 1640), who are said to have been educated at Jesus College, Oxford, and to have studied medicine, but Foster's evidence is inconclusive. We have Charles Lloyd's own statement that he and his brother Thomas were at Oxford, and Richard Davies the Quaker stated that both brothers left because they were tired of the persecution of Quakers there. John turned his attention to law and was one of the Six Clerks of Chancery. He married Jane Gresham, a descendant of Sir Thomas Gresham, founder of the Royal Exchange, and remained a loyal churchman, presenting communion plate to Meifod church.
