Brychan Brycheiniog

Brychan Brycheiniog was a legendary king of Powys, with numerous descendants. According to some Welsh and Cornish sources his children numbered more than thirty daughters and thirty sons. Although there does not seems to have been a medieval saintly cult of Brychan, he has sometimes been depicted as a saint in stained glass in more recent times.
