Catrin ferch Owain Glyndŵr

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Catrin ferch Owain Glyndŵr (died 1413) was one of the daughters of Margaret Hanmer and Owain Glyndŵr the disinherited prince of the old royal house of Powys Fadog who led a major revolt in Wales between 1400 and c.1416. Little is known about any of the children of Owain Glyndŵr. Catrin married Edmund Mortimer after his alliance with her father in 1402. Her husband would die during the siege of Harlech Castle in 1409 where she would subsequently be captured alongside her three daughters. They, as well as her mother and one of her sisters, would be taken to the Tower of London. The deaths of Catrin and her daughters are recorded, but that of her mother is not. It is known only that Margaret outlived Catrin.
