GWYN, ---; b.; in under school lists 1715-8; left 1718. [Whitmore believed that this was“no doubt” Francis Gwyn, an elder brother of John Gwyn (qv); but although Francis Gwyn could certainly have been educated at the School, it seems unlikely that he is identifiable as the Gwyn who appears in under school lists 1715-8, for John Gwyn’s elder brother Francis Gwyn was already aged 18 when he matr. Christ Church, Oxford, 4 Jun 1717, so he can hardly still have been in the Under School in 1717-8. He was Fellow, All Souls Coll. 1721-4; BA 21 Feb 1721/2; MA 1727; adm.
