Born 1550. Dafydd Benwyn was a poet.

Dafydd Benwyn was a 16th-century poet, from Glamorganshire, Wales.

They include a number of works written in praise of, and containing the genealogies of, some of the wealthiest families of Glamorganshire and Monmouthshire, and are quite important in this respect.
