A NOTE ON EMYR LLYDAW AND HIS SON, MADOG

Because in the 'Dialogue of Arthur and the Eagle' Uther is said to have a son Madog, I would point out that Emyr Llydaw was said to have a son of the same name.  Here is the relevant entry on Emyr from P.C. Bartram's A CLASSICAL WELSH DICTIONARY.  Bartram stresses in this entry that the real Llydaw may have been somewhere in SE Wales.  I've recently shown this to be the Vale of Leadon (http://mistshadows.blogspot.com/2017/09/the-galfridian-genealogy-for-arthur-and.html).

And here is my previous piece on Eliwlad:
