      Conan "le Tort" took Nantes in 990; descends from a Conan known as Cynan
      Medriadog, Prince of Albaine and Powys, who died in 421 (m.388 Dareara,
      sister of St. Patrick & dau. of Calphurnius) - the legends also have Cynan
      leaving to found a colony in Armorica, France in 384. Legend also traces
      Conan's line from ancient Welsh "kings." As Count of Rennes he subdued the
      entire province and his son and successor, Geoffrey, was first to assume
      the title "Duke of Brittany." The dukes were crowned at Rennes.
