• Written on an indented parchment, twelve inches by three inches, and slit so as upon three slips to carry thirteen seals in red wax. The seals are rude, and not very decipherable. One bears the Carne pelican vulning herself , and another resembles the trunk of a tree couped and eradicated, with a motto of three short but undecyphered words in Gothic character.
• John Basset was of Beaupre. He married Jenet, daughter of Morgan ap Jenkin Philip, of Pencoed, co. Mon., and was ancestor of the Bassets of Gam, Llantrithyd, and Bonvileston. The land in Eglwys Brewis went to his second son, John, whose grandson, Miles Basset, seems to have sold it in 1662 to Evan Seys.

• Sir Mathew Cradock, one of the numerous descendants from Einon ap Collwyn, was probably a merchant and certainly a shipowner, and a considerable landed proprietor in Gower and near Cardiff. His daughter and heiress married Sir R. Herbert of Bwias. The Bassetts were probably the sons of John Bassett of Beaupre by Janet, daughter of Morgan Jenkin Philip of Pencoed.

• Jenkin in Welsh pedigrees is often used as the Welsh form of John, and the text shews it to be so in this case. John or Jenkin Basset, of Beaupre, who died 1492, was succeeded by his eldest son James, whose daughter and heiress Elinor married Sir Rice Mansel, but the male heir was William, second son of John or Jenkin, and the granter of the above quit-claim. He did not inherit Beaupre, and is therefore styled generosus instead of armiger ; but the messuage in the castle baillie was part of the male fief , being one of the lodgings provided for the tenants in capite when they were in residence to discharge their duty of castle guard. Kibour or Kibbwr, now a modern hundred, was the Royal commote, and a part of it the chief lord's demesne land, and contained Cardiff Castle, here called the 'Le Castell Baillie' in Kibour. Sir Rees, having Beaupre, no doubt desired to acquire the whole of the Basset possessions. Sir Rice left no children by Elinor Basset, but he settled Beaupre on Catherine, a daughter by his second wife, on her marriage with William Basset, the male heir.
• The seal used, the pelican, is that of Carne, and it is curious, as a similar seal is affixed to the Inq. p. Mortem of John or Jenkin Basset.

• Ruthyn, was father of Howell, father of Cynvrig lord of Miscin, who, by Angharad, daughter of Llewelyn ap Rhys, was father of Llewelyn, father of Jevan and Llewelyn-ychan.
• Jevan had Llewelyn, father of Morgan, of whose two daughters (coheirs), Margaret married John Gamage of Coyty, and carried into that family what were called their Miscin lands ; and Catherine, who married Thomas Mathew, whose descendants thus obtained Radyr.
• Llewelyn-ychan, the younger brother of Jevan, is reputed to have had a large estate in Llantrithyd, but not the manor. He had David, father of Jevan, who is said to have built Llantrithyd Place in the reign of Henry VII. Jevan was father of Thomas, and he of Jenkin ap Llantrithyd, whose daughter and heir, Jenet, married Thomas, third son of Jenkin or John Bassett of Beaupre, and thus seated these cadets of Beaupre in Llantrithyd.
