Jesus College MS. 20 Genealogies

The Jesus College MS. 20 Genealogies are a number of pedigrees found in Jesus College MS. 20, folios 33^r to 41^r.

The manuscript is of the late 14th century and is the largest surviving medieval collection of Welsh genealogical information. The forms of the names indicates a source prior to 1200. Parts of the manuscript are rubbed and dirty making reading difficult and parts of the text are corrupt.

The genealogies show a particular interest in south Wales and Morgannwg and contain much that is unique.
