Some nineteen letters, 1868-1899, sent to members of the Davies family of Cwrtmawr, mainly from other family members. They include five letters from Eliza Davies (1798-1876) to her son R. J. Davies, 1868-1874, and two to her daughter-in-law Frances Davies, 1869; one letter, together with an empty envelope, from D. C. Davies, Chicago, to his mother Frances Davies, 1890, 1893; and a letter from R. J. Davies to his daughter Mary Elizabeth Davies on her 21st birthday, [1890]. A letter from T. C. Edwards, 1881, is presumably intended for R. J. Davies.
Also included are miscellaneous items relating to the Davies family (and the Ellis family), 1887-1928, including two press cuttings, a photograph, and the title page of R. J. Davies's copy of the Bible.
