************************************************************************
****************I have an early Kyffin (I think Madog Kyffin) in my
family tree , 1500s....
The name could be derived from Cynfyn I suppose (I'm thinking of the
likes of Bleddyn ap Cynfyn, Prince of Powys) Some people are also
called Gyttin etc.
