  • John Evan Price Church in Cwmamman
    John Evan Price and the Church in Cwmamman Matthew 5:11-12 Between March and September 1847, John Evan Price moved to Cwmamman, Llandeilo Fawr Parish, Carmarthenshire, where he found employment sawing timber for the coal works. With him were his wife, Ruth Williams Price, and their four-year-old daughter, Esther Price. The family came from Brecknockshire, where they had become acquainted with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, through the preaching of William Hughes and Thomas Pugh. John Evan Price was probably pleased with his masters and overseers at the coal works. He was disappointed, however, at the complete absence of the LDS church where he lived. It may have been his earnest request that brought the first LDS preachers to Cwmamman. The preachers, Elder John Griffiths and James Phillips (a priest) arrived in about August 1847. They were soon joined by Elder R. Davies. The October 1847 issue of the Welsh LDS periodical Prophwyd y Jubili (Prophet of the Jubilee) describes the missionary work in Cwmamman: CWMAMAN. Two elders, and one priest, have moved there to live and to work, for the purpose of being able to preach the gospel of Christ freely to those good people; and great is the hearing they have, and the cheerfulness that is shown them by almost everyone; and according to what we hear from nearly everywhere, the people, after being so long in wrangling with respect to sectarianism, are disgusted; and when they open their ears to hear this everlasting gospel, at times they shout, “This is it,” and we answer, “Yes, dear friends, this is it,” indeed! This is the godly religion you have searched so eagerly for; embrace it, and you shall find the treasure of treasures in it.

Carmarthenshire Rural Affairs Consultation - Summary Report e. Carmarthenshire Rural Affairs Conference Report – 7 September 2018 2 Foreword by the Chair It is my great pleasure as Chair of the Rural Affairs Task Group to present this report to my fellow elected members and the wider public. The publication of this report marks a significant milestone for the authority as it is the first time ever that a wide-ranging strategy has been developed to regenerate our rural communities in Carmarthenshire. I am extremely grateful to the members of the Task Group for their commitment and input and I would also like to extend my deep gratitude to the officers who have provided specialist advice and support throughout. I would also like to extend my sincerest thanks to all of the officers, stakeholders, partners and interested parties who have attended Task Group meetings to present information and evidence for our consideration and to those who submitted their thoughts and comments as part of the public consultation. Your contributions have given us plenty of food for thought and have shaped our findings and recommendations. For those of us who live in Carmarthenshire’s countryside we take for granted the many aspects of its outstanding natural beauty, its resilient and close-knit communities, its long and distinguished agricultural tradition, the rich history and heritage that meets us around every corner and the unique culture associated with the Welsh language, which has been an interweaving fabric of community life in this part of Wales for centuries.

    CONTRACT WWB/02/07 NNAATTUURRAALL CCAAPPIITTAALL AAUUDDIITT 2: APPENDICES Collation of summarised information on biodiversity and the wider environment to assist the farming community of this region in diversification of interests. This report is a synthesis of available information on all aspects of natural and cultural heritage. Prepared for Planed on 29 February 2008 by West Wales Biodiversity Information Centre Landsker Business Centre, Llwynybrain, Whitland, Carmarthenshire SA34 0NG. Telephone 01994 241468. www.wwbic.org.uk With additional information supplied by: Cambria Archaeology, Environment Agency and Sid Howells. Contributors: Louise Austin, Sarah Beynon, Rob Davies, Sid Howells, Jon Hudson, Kate Jones, Marion Page, Vicky Swann. PLANED: Natural Capital Audit West Wales Biodiversity 2008 1 APPENDIX 1: Farmer Profiles Intensive farmers (dairy) Farmer 1 Farm 1 supports 3 sons as well as parents, and therefore on a farm of 430 acres (plus 170 acres of rented land), diversification has been necessary. They own an agri-contracting business and permit shooting walks on the farm. They are milking over 150 cows, and grow arable crops on their land: 46 acres of maize and 230 acres of corn. They are currently not in any agri-environment scheme other than a Catchment Sensitive Farming project: Deep Ford Brook project. However, he says that again, this brings with it more red tape: he can now not increase stock numbers, and believes this is just another way of getting information regarding fertiliser usage: “it is just NVC through the back door”. Farmer 1 adds that “a stocking rate of 1 cow per acre has been pushed by the government over the past 40 years” and therefore, due to financial reasons, they cannot justify any management regulations placed on their productive grazing land.
