Hanes bywgraffyddol

Evan Teg of Dolobran took the surname Lloyd in about 1476, after his grandfather's seat of Llwydiarth. Seven generations later, Charles Lloyd (1637-1698) of Dolobran, became a Quaker in 1662, and suffered much persecution in consequence. He had two sons, Charles (1662-1747), who succeeded his father, and Sampson (b. 1664, alive 1695). Charles Lloyd's grandson, James Lloyd (dsp. 1787) sold Dolobran.

In 1765, Samuel Lloyd's third son, Sampson Lloyd (b. 1699), and John Taylor set up a private banking business in Birmingham. Four of Samuel's sons, Samuel Lloyd (b. 1768), David Lloyd (b. 1769), Alfred Lloyd (b. 1780) and Henry Lloyd (b. 1784), became bankers, including establishing Barnetts Hoares Hanbury & Lloyd of Lombard Street, London. The current Lloyd's Bank derives from this family of bankers.

In 1873 Henry Lloyd repurchased a portion of the old estate (Dolobran Fach), and in 1878 Sampson Samuel Lloyd MP (1820-1899) acquired the other part of the estate. The family was still at Dolobran in 1969, when Samuel Llewellyn Lloyd (b. 1907) was head of the family.

Ardal cynnwys a strwythur

Natur a chynnwys

Deeds relating to the Dolobran estate in the parishes of Meifod and Llanfihangel-yng-Ngwynfa, Montgomertyshire. The deeds date from the time of Charles Lloyd (1662-1747), and are records of mortgages, transfers of mortgages and creations of trusts, of the sale of the estate by the Lloyd family to Joseph Jones, and of the repurchase in 1873 of a portion of the old estate (Dolobran Fach) by Henry Lloyd. Two documents dated 1878 refer to the acquisition of the other part of the estate by Sampson Samuel Lloyd, MP. The part played by Dolobran in the history of the Quakers in Montgomeryshire is reflected in letters, 1813-1829 relating to transactions for the sale of the Quaker Meeting House and Burial Ground at Dolobran.
