Enw'r crëwr
Hanes bywgraffyddol
The family originated from south Cardiganshire and north Carmarthenshire. They were descendents of the pioneers of nonconformity in Cardiganshire and had strong connections with the Unitarian cause. The line moved to Aberdare when the Rev. John Jones became minister of Hen Dŷ Cwrdd in 1833. His son, Rees Jenkin Jones, succeeded him in 1863.
The family were minor landowners and owned properties in south Cardiganshire, north Carmarthenshire and Aberdare.
Further biographical details and information relating to estate papers can be found in the appropriate unit of description.
Hanes archifol
The papers of the Rev. John Jones were apparently passed to his son, the Rev. Rees Jenkin Jones, sometime after his death in 1863. He also acquired the papers of his wife, Mrs Anne Griffith Jones, who died in 1899. Dr Goronwy Jones acquired these papers following the death of his father, the Rev. Rees Jenkin Jones, in 1924. Following Dr Jones's death in 1945, the residue of the family papers, i.e., those not already deposited at NLW, passed to his sister, Anne, and brother-in-law, the Rev. Simon Jones.
Ffynhonnell
Donated on four separate occasions by Dr Goronwy Jones of Swansea between 1926 and 1935, and by his brother-in-law, the Rev. Simon Jones, Swansea, in June 1967.
