Family Background:
Underwood and Allied Families
     Robert Griffith was the son of Griffith ap Evan.1 He died at sea on the voyage to Pennsylvania in 1698.1
     
     Robert had another daughter who died unmarried, and possibly other children who took the surname of Roberts.2. Based on the will of Robert's sister Catherine Griffith who called the children of William Morgan her nieces, Elizabeth Roberts, William's first wife and the mother of those children, was probably the daughter of Robert Griffith. However, relationships in old records are not always as stated, and the aforementioned children were the nieces of Catherine's daughter-in-law, Elizabeth Morgan. Nevertheless, every other person called "niece" or "nephew" in the will is identified by the correct relationship.
