The fall of Harlech in February 1409 was the effective end of Glyndŵr's rebellion as a state. Edmund Mortimer — Glyndŵr's son-in-law — died during the siege of exhaustion or starvation. Glyndŵr's wife Margaret, daughters and grandchildren were taken to the Tower of London where they starved to death. Glyndŵr himself escaped and was never captured. He refused royal pardons and disappeared from history after 1412, dying probably in 1415. Men of Harlech commemorates the garrison's desperate resistance.
Edmund Mortimer died; Glyndŵr's family captured and imprisoned
