Although the first undisputed mass migration from Wales to the US took place in the 17th century, a full account of a legendary voyage by Madoc in the 12th century, and the first to make the claim that he had come to America, appears in Humphrey Llwyd's Cronica Walliae, an English adaptation of Brut y Tywysogion in 1559. US presidents with Welsh ancestry include Thomas Jefferson and Barack Obama.
