*"Bynames Based On Location - The typical nickname based on location simply uses the proper name of a place after the given name.

** Edward I built Conwy Castle c. 1280. Before that, there was a monastery at that place, called Aberconwy (established in the late 1100s). This was all on the bank of the Conwy River.

* Need a date earlier than 1269 to go with Saerlaith, unless find a later date than 969 for Saerlaith.

* ''KING JOHN AND THE CISTERCIANS IN WALES'' PhD Thesis - https://orca.cf.ac.uk/43581/1/2013jenkinsjhphd.pdf
* King John’s 1202 charter to Aberconwy abbey ‘is unique in English royal charters for Welsh foundations’, before then seemingly suggesting it was issued as a matter of routine, without explaining how a ‘unique’ charter could be routinely issued.74 Even Rhys Hays in his ''History of Aberconway Abbey'' says that it was surprising this 1202 charter was issued before again suggesting, ‘likely it was a matter of routine’.75
** Unfortunately, the spelling in the 1202 Charter is Aberconwey - "(I)ohannes Dei gratia rex Anglie dominus Hibernie dux Normanie et comes Andegauie iusticiariis, vicecomitibus et omnibus balliuis suis Anglie et Wallie et totius terre sue et portuum maris salutem.  Sciatis quod suscepimus in manum et protectionem nostram abbaciam de Aberconwey..."

* MI Gaelic and Welsh are a compatible lingual mix per SENA Appendix C
* MI Gaelic and Welsh are not in the same language family, so elements need to be within 300 years of each other, ''ibid''
