So the list so far is:

Apjohn, Upjohn = Son of John
Apted = Son of Teoda (or Theodore?)
Baines = Son of Einws
Barry, Parry = Son of Harry
Bedward = Son of Edward
Bellis = Son of Ellis
Beynon = Son of Eynon
Bowen = Son of Owain
Bythel = Son of Ithel
Penry = Son of Henry
Powell = Son of Howell
Price = Son of Rhys
Pri(t)chard = Son of Richard
Probert = Son of Robert
Probin, Probyn = Son of Robin
Prosser = Son of Rosser
Prothero = Son of Rothero
Pryderch = Son of Ryderch
Pugh, Tugh = Son of Hugh
Pulliam = Son of William

So as we see, while they're maybe not the most common kind of surnames, they sure do exist. And because of the Bretons in France, there are relatives to them also in French-speaking countries.
