Nest Ferch Cadell
Nest ferch Cadell was the daughter of Cadell ap Brochfael, an 8th-century King of Powys, the wife of Merfyn Frych, King of Gwynedd. On the death of her brother Cyngen ap Cadell in 855, authority over the Kingdom of Powys was claimed by Rhodri the Great, who had previously inherited the Kingdom of Gwynedd on the death of his father in 844. Rhodri thus united the Kingdoms of Powys and Gwynedd. Traditionally, Nest was claimed to be Rhodri's mother, hence his claim to Powys would have been matrilineal. However, it is unclear why the inheritance of Powys would have passed through Nest to her son, and not to one of the sons of Cyngen: Elisedd ap Cyngen, Ieuaf ap Cyngen, Aeddan ap Cyngen, and Gruffudd ap Cyngen. The texts of Welsh laws which survive to us were written down no earlier than the 12th century, but they provide no evidence that women were capable of transmitting legal title of kingship or lordship. Equally, although Rhodri's pedigree in a manuscript in Jesus College Oxford s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Jessie Cadell
Jessie Ellen Cadell (23 August 1844 – 17 June 1884) was an English novelist and orientalist who wrote stories set in India, where she lived for some time with her husband. Biography Cadell was born Jessie Ellen Nash in London on 23 August 1844. At an early age she accompanied her husband, a British Army officer, to India. She resided chiefly at Peshawar, and embodied her observations of frontier life in the novel '' Ida Craven'' (1876). Under the tedium of cantonment life, Mrs. Cadell learnt Persian, and upon her return to England after the death of her husband devoted herself especially to the study of Omar Khayyam, the Persian astronomer and poet. Without seeking to compete with Edward FitzGerald's splendid paraphrase of Khayyam in its own line, Cadell contemplated a complete edition, and a more accurate translation. She visited numerous public libraries in quest of manuscripts, and published a portion of her research in an article in ''Fraser's Magazine'' in May 1879 ...
