Enw'r crëwr
Hanes bywgraffyddol
John Thomas Evans (1869-1941), was the second son of Captain Titus and Mrs Elizabeth Evans of Ty Rhos, Fishguard, Pembrokeshire. He became a priest in the Church of England in 1892, and later rector of Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire, where he stayed until 1935. His prime interest was in Church antiquities, mainly in church plate. Between 1905 and 1928, he published six volumes describing the church plate of every parish in the diocese of St Davids, and two volumes on church plate of Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire. He wrote articles on antiquarian matters, particularly on those concerning Pembrokeshire.
Hanes archifol
At one time, J. T. Evans had intended to give the collection to the Bodleian Library in Oxford, but subsequently changed his mind. Four volumes, numbered MSS 47, 52, 59 and 60, noted in the catalogue were not received by NLW. MSS 61-71 were a subsequent donation by A. W. Wade-Evans, added to the 'Titus & Elizabeth Evans MSS'; the main group of A. W. Wade-Evans's papers form a separate archive.
Ffynhonnell
Donated by Selina C. Evans, in 1943 with additions in 1978 by Mrs M. Phillips, Hitchin.
