Dear Brice ~

David Owen's father, Owen Tudor, was an esquire, never a knight. This
is indicated by a record in the patent or close rolls dated the year of
his death, which record you should be able to find easily on your end.


He is likewise called esquire in the following Welsh pedigree:

"Owen Tudyr Esqe = Catrin unig æres Charles brenin Fraingke."
[Reference: Dwnn, Heraldic Vis. of Wales, 2 (1846): 108 (Tudor
pedigree)].

Best always, Douglas Richardson, Salt lake City, Utah
