NOTES
- Jony was buried 23rd April 1683, Malew
- Her daughter Alice (Inyreah) married Christopher Bridson 18th May, 1675 , had two children Matthias b1675 and Cathrin b1677, and died 1679 leaving her mother in charge of her son Matthias and to care for her wearing apparel which she had left to daughter Cathrin
- No clues as to who Jony's husband was but evidently he had died before Jony
- There is much about the Malew Mylreas of the 1600s and early 1700s that does not hang together so extreme caution must be exercised
- For further insights into the Malew Mylreas, please refer to Mylreas in Ballaquaile and Fildraw
