It is difficult to determine exactly how much Welsh influence shows up in these parish registers. The problem lies in the shift in Welsh naming practices in the 16th century. Many non-Welsh names had been and were continuing to be absorbed into Welsh use. For that reason, I have only noted in this section those names which very obviously show Welsh influence.
