Biographical/Historical note
The estate of Treadam is thought to date back to the thirteenth century. It was in the ownership of the Watkins family for several hundred years, being held by John Watkins in 1575. His son, John Watkins, inherited the estate.
The two daughters of John Watkins, Mary and Susan, seem each to have owned a half-share of Treadam.
Mary married Charles Herbert in 1674 and they and their children lived at Treadam.
Susan Watkins married William Hughes of Cefn Llytha; her share of the property passed to her daughter, Susan Hughes, who was married to William Watkins.
The Great House was formerly known as Ty Mawr, and was for many years the residence of the Morgan family. Following the death of James Morgan in 1704, his widow Elinor was married for the second time to Henry Lussan, who appears to have held the estate for life.
The heirs of James Morgan were his two daughters Jane and Margaret. Margaret married Chrisopher Price; their daughter Rebecca was married to John Chambre of Llanfoist. Margaret, the youngest daughter of Christopher Price,married William Bonner.
The manor of Triley was sold to Frederick Samuel Secretan by Sir Mark Wood in 1820.
Triley Fach was a separate estate within the manor of Triley.
