SECOND MARRIAGE: Boudica-Boadicea 'Victoria' verch MANDURBRATIUS
BIRTH: Abt 8 A.D. in Montgomeryshire, Powys, Wales

This second marriage is just supposition on my part.
The genealogy file of 'researcher Dale Updike' states that Penardun
was the protege 'step daughter' so to speak of Boudica.
This would mean that she would have married Bran after the death
of his wife, Anna. Some files state that Penardun used the name 'Julia Victoria'.

Bran appears to have taken power in or around 9 AD from his father. He was the King of Siluria and he was commander of the British fleet. He abdicated the crown to his son Caradoc in 36 A.D. and became the Arch-Druid of the college of Siluria. He remained there until he was called upon to be a hostage for his son.

During his 7 years in Rome, Bran became the first Royal convert to Christ in England. He was baptized by the apostle Paul as was his son Caradoc. This was long before the first Roman Catholic missionaries came under Augustine. He became known as 'Bran the Blessed Sovereign'.

His recorded proverb is: "There is no good apart from God".
