Daniel Llewellyn Jr married Jane Stith, daughter of Col. John Stith and was referred to in her father's will of 13 Nov 1690 as "daughter Jane the now wife of Capt Daniel Luellin".

Margaret Llewellyn is thought to have married James Crews sometime between 10 Aug 1654 when she witnessed a deed as Margaret Llewellyn and before 1 May 1662 when she witnessed a will "Margaret Crewes". There was no spouse indicated in the will of James Crews in Jul of 1676, indicating Margaret had likely died if she is the same lady.

Placed repeatedly as daughter o James Crewes & Margaret Llewellyn - just wrong!
Find A Grave Memorial ID 225833278 has wrong name, wrong, parents, a wrong sibling,etc. There is not one shred of proof that this
FindAGrave page is correct. There is NO evidence that James Crewes and his possible wife, Margaret Llewellyn, had ANY children. Margaret's sister, Martha was likely married to a Jones, not her imaginary daughter. Peter Jones was married to a very different Margaret, stepdaughter of Abraham Wood, and certainly not a Crewes. Margaret Llewellyn Crewes (1641-1719) was b. 1641 in Charles City, Charles City Co, Virginia and died 1719 (aged 77–78) Henrico Co, VA with burial unknown.
