Gwenhaf

Saint Gwenhaf lived in the 6th century in South Wales. She was the daughter of Tegid Foel and married Enlleu, son of Hydwyn, son of Ceredig. She was the mother of Saint Teilo and of his half-⁠brother Afan Buallt.

Several accounts are told of her death. According to some, she was stoned as a witch because she was too generous to the poor; according to others, she was killed by a pagan at Craig y Saeson near Llandegfedd; and according to still others, Saint Illtud arranged her murder because she knew the secret of the place where Arthur was buried. She is remembered at Penallt, the place once called Llangenau.
