=== Richard Fleming would have descended fro ===
Richard Fleming would have descended from John le Fleming who entered Wales at the time of the Norman conquest, however, his exact lineage is not entirely clear.
LE FLEMING OF ST GEORGE AND FLEMINGSTON
The first of this family in Glamorgan was Sir John le Fleming, on whom Fitzhamon [Robert] is said to have bestowed the manors of St George, Wenvoe, Flemingston, Llanmaes, &c. His wife was Amicia, dau. of Baldwin Magnus, Lord of Whitney. He had a younger son, called by the Welsh Fleming melyn "the yellow," to whom he gave the manors of Flemingston and Constatine Walles, "which continued in his descendants until, on failure of issue male, William Fleming sold the estate to Lewis Thomas, Esq. of Bettws."
Sir John Fleming's eldest son, Sir William Fleming, succeeded him in the lorships of St George, Wenvoe, and Llanmaes. In the reign of Edward II [1307-1327], under the younger Hugh Despence, a Sir William Fleming was in possession of these lands. He was executed at Cardiff, because, some say, he had, as sheriff of the lordship of Glamorgan, unjustly condemned Llewelyn Bren, of Seghenydd to death. He was buried in the cemetery of Grey Friars, "outside the north gate of the town of Cardiff."
After the time of this Sir William, the inheritance, in the absence of issue male, descended to his dau., who m. Edmund Malifant, of Pembrokeshie, whose descendants enjoyed till the time of Henry VII., when Edmond Malifant, who had m. a dau. of Sir Matthew Cradock, d without issue, and the estate fell to John Butler, Esq., of Dunraven, who had m Elizabeth, dau of William Fleming, and after the death, s.p. of their descendant, John Butler, Esq., both estates fell to Walter Vaughan, Esq., who had m. Joan, dau and h of the said John Butler.
FLEMING OF PENLLINE AND SWANSEA
This family sprung from Richard, a younger son of Sir William Fleming, of St George, who was himself the heir of the first Le Fleming of the Conquest. A son or grandson of Richard, Thomas Fleming is the first we have found as "of Penlline." He m. Angharad, dau of Jenkin ap Richard ap Jenkin ap Richard Fawr; and his son, John Fleming, of Penlline, m. Mayzod, dau of Walter ap William ap Hopkin ap David ap David ap David Ddu, said in one MS to be a "conjuror." [Annals and Antiquities of Wales II:563-4]
