WILLIAM EDWARD GAMES
THE STORY AS I KNOW IT
William Edward Games was born about 1567 in Nunton, Brecon,Wales. His parents were Esquire John Games and Wilford Awbrey.
William married Elizabeth Anne and they had one known son, Thomas Gaines who immigrated to Virginia prior to 1650 with many if not all his children.
There information is from the website http://www.angelfire.com/nt/oddentree/gaines.html that has the Descendants of Llywelyn Ap Hywel Fychan. It takes the Welsh family of Gaines/Games/Gam back to 1350. Every generation is there and all the mother’s maiden names except Elizabeth Anne. Do check it out because I won’t type it all in until the Margaret Gaines connection can be made between this Welsh family and the Miller family of Virginia.
Slightly different information is given in Descendants of Thomas Gaines of Virginia on the web gave Sir John Games as the father of Thomas the immigrant. This information seems to also be in a book on the Gaines Family by Calvin Suthherd.
