Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua hē ngā kairangahau whakapapa i te whakatakoto i te rākau whānau o Hillary Clinton, ā, e honoa ana ia ki tētahi whānau maina rawakore o Wales, e ai ki tētahi tohunga. I a ia e tīmata ana i tana tono kia uru atu ki te White House, ka taea e Hillary Clinton te kii ko tana huarahi ki te perehitini i timata i te 160 tau ki muri i roto i te hahi iti o Welsh o Ystradyfodwg <unk> mena ka taea e ia te whakahua, ara. Ahakoa i kōrero kētia e te kaitōrangapū o Amerika tōna whakapapa o Ingarangi, he rākau whakapapa tūturu kua whakakite i ōna hononga ki tētahi hapori maina rawakore i ngā raorao o Wales. Ko Ystradyfodwg, e kiia ana ko Ust-rady-vod-ug, te kaainga o te tupuna tupuna o Mrs Clinton - he wahine i whakaatu i te whakatau, he rite ki tera o te wahine tuatahi o mua, ki te whawhai i roto i te rawakore me te heke ki Amerika me tona whanau. Inaa hoki, ko te whakatau a Mrs Clinton kia eke ki te Whare Ma me te tuhi hitori hei perehitini wahine tuatahi, ka kitea i roto i nga mahi a ona tupuna wahine, nana nei i whakahe nga tikanga hapori puta noa i nga tau. Kua kitea e te tohunga whakapapa o Amerika a Megan Smolenyak nga pakiaka o Mrs Clinton ki tetahi whanau maina mai i Ystradyfodwg, he hapori iti i te tonga o Wales. I tapaina ki a Dyfodwg, ki Tyfodwg ranei, he tapu Welsh o te rautau ono e whakapono ana etahi he Monk Breton. Ko te rohe, e mohiotia ana mo te whakawhirinaki ki te keri waro me te rawakore, kua whakakorehia, kua uru inaianei ki Rhondda. Ko te tupuna tupuna o Mrs Clinton a Mary Griffiths i whanau i Merthyr Tydfil i nga raorao o Welsh, ana mai i te tamarikitanga i tautoko i tana whaea pouaru. E whakaatu ana nga tuhinga mana i te mahi ia hei kaimahi i te 12 o ona tau, engari i te mea pono kua mahi ia i mua atu. I kii a Smolenyak: 'I whanau mai i te 1850 i Merthyr Tydfil <unk> i taua wa, te taone nui rawa atu i Wales <unk> ka kitea ia [Mary Griffiths] i roto i te tatauranga 1851 e noho ana me tana whaea pouaru me nga tuakana e toru. 'I te tau kotahi o te korenga o tōna pāpā, kua pāngia kētia a Mary Griffiths e te ringa pakeke.' Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. I haere tonu ia ki te marena ki a William Jones, he kaimahi waro mai i Neath, i te tau 1871...
Ko te rākau whānau tūturu o Hillary Clinton e whakaatu ana i ōna tīpuna Welsh. I noho rātau ki tētahi rohe maina rawakore e kiia nei ko Ystradyfodwg, ko Rhondda ināianei. I heke atu te whānau ki Pennsylvania i reira i whānau mai ai te kuia o Mrs Clinton, a Hannah Jones - tētahi o ngā tamariki tokowhā i roto i te 14 i whānau mai ki te ora. Katahi ka rere a Hannah Jones ki a Hugh Rodham - te tupuna o Mrs Clinton - ki te marena na te mea i whakahe te whanau ki a ia mo te rawakore o tona whanau.
