Owain ab Edwin (d 1105), a landowner in Tengeingl (modern Flints.). He and his brother, Uchtryd, were the reputed sons of Edwin ap Gronw (a great-great-grandson of Hywel Dda by Iwerydd, half-sister of Bleddyn ap Cynfyn). Though he assisted earl Hugh of Chester in the latter's abortive expedition against Gwynedd in 1098, his daughter, Angharad, m. Gruffudd ap Cynan. His son, Gronw, was the father of Christina, second wife of Owain Gwynedd. He should not be confused with his father's cousin - also Owain ab Edwiin - of the main royal line of Deheubarth. [Dictionary of Welsh Biography p689]


Owain ap Edwin (d 1104), Welsh chieftain, was the son of Edwain ap Gronw ap Einon ap Owen ap Hywel Dda and Iwerydd, daughter of Cynfyn ap Gwerstan. His father held Counsillt (near Flint) from Robert of Rhuddlan at the time of the Domesday survey, and was probably the most important Welshman at this time in Tegeingl. To this position Owain probably secceeded about 1090. In 1098 he gave assistance to his suzernin, Earl Hugh of Chester, and the Earl Hugh of Shrewsbury in their joint invasion of Anglesey and thereby aquired the name of "Owain Fradwr" (i.e. the Traitor). On the flight of Gruffydd ap Cynan and Cadwgan ap Bleddyn in the same year the invaders set him up as ruler over Gwynedd; but a revolt of the Welsh brought the two leaders back from Ireland in 1099, and Owain's rule came to an end. He died in 1104, after a long illness. His sons, Llywarch, Gronw, Rhiddid, Meilyr and Ieuaf were men of importance in Tengeingl, and some of them founded familied of note in the district. His daughter Angharad was the wife of Gruffydd ap Cynan. [The Dictionary of National Biography; George Smith, Fd., Sir Leslie Stephen and Sir Sidney Lee, Ed., 1953, Vol XIV:1284, Owain ap Edwin]
