The Archdeacon of LlandafF writes :— The Reverend Ewart Lewis, Vicar of Llanblethian with Cowbridge, EWART OWEN THOMAS LEWIS died suddenly at his vicarage on May 28. Bom in 1914 at Whitland, he was educated at Llandovery and Oriel College, Oxford. After his PRIEST ordination, he served in three parishes in the diocese of St. David’s before coming to Cowbridge in 1949, first as vicar and then as rural 1914 - 1963 dean. Few realised at the time that they were seeing the beginning of a most distinguished ministry, but the careful observer would soon have noticed abvious marks of distinction ; there was the cautious slowness of the scholar, the ability to make and to keep a wide circle of friends, his many interests—his fishing rods, his gramophone with its great VICAR OF LLANBLETHIAN WITH COWBRIDGE trumpet, his records, his books and, most important of all, his simple 1949- 1963 piety. All these were to grow. He bases his pastoral work on his love of people and, as a parish priest, he turned often to the past. RURAL DEAN OF COWBRIDGE It was not that he ran away from the problems of the present because 1950- 1962 few were as aware of them as he—it was rather that the past held so SECRETARY OF THE STANDING LITURGICAL COMMISSION many things he loved, not merely fine buildings or the learning of divines long since dead, but the unhurried pace of parish life. Not for OF THE CHURCH IN WALES him was the latest development or the latest fashion in parochial management, he refused to be rushed because his work demanded patience, the patience of the pastor caring for the individual. As secretary of the Liturgical Commission all his learning came into full play. He had always been a serious student of careful ability. He had worked on Augustine for many years, he read wisely, read almost anything—novels, biography or theology absorbed him and he had the CHURCH OF THE HOLY CROSS lucky gift of being able to remember what he had read. Now all this was directed to one end. Very soon he became thoroughly con­ COW BRIDGE versant with liturgical developments at home and abroad, and his 5th JU N E, 1963 memoranda guided those who have the task of reforming our worship. He told the story of the beginning of this work in his book Prayer Book Revision in the Church of Wales. It is given to few of our priests to have so many gifts and to find a place in so many hearts. Requiescat in pact (From The Times newspaper 7 June, 1963).

  • Descent of St. Maur and Seymour Families
    -390- ST MAUR AND SEYMOUR DESCENT OF ST.MAUR FAMILY OF CO.MONMOUTH AND SEYMOUR FAMILY OF HATCH, CO.SOMERSET by Paul C. Reed1 ABSTRACT This Seymour family became renowned in the person of Jane Seymour, who died twelve days after the birth of Edward, the only legitimate son of Henry VIII to survive infancy. It is not surprising that the origins of this family came under the focus of the earliest English historians and genealogists, including Camden, Dugdale and Vincent. Brydges and others later attempted fuller accounts in their works on the peerage, but the paucity of surviving records has allowed errant conclusions and fictions to persist in the most widely available modern accounts. The purpose of this article is to present a fresh analysis of what survives and bring the subject up to current standards of scholarship. Foundations (2008) 2 (6): 390-442 © Copyright FMG and the author As is the case with so many medieval English families, our knowledge of the earliest generations of the Seymours in the century and a half after Domesday is vague and uncertain. The earliest definitely traceable ancestor appears in record because of his acquisition of land—he burst onto the scene through conquest. In a period when preserving the king’s peace would normally have forbad dispossessing anyone of a manor (whether they had been in legitimate possession or not), at this specific time it furthered the interests of the crown to have Englishmen displace the native Welsh. Even after the family acquired heritable land, the descent of the male line through the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries is not entirely certain because of the scant survival of documents concerning manors and lands in the Marches of Wales.

Amen. A reading from the book of the prophet Ezekiel. The word of the LORD came to me: So you, mortal, I have made a sentinel for the house of Israel; whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me. If I say to the wicked, ‘O wicked ones, you shall surely die,’ and you do not speak to warn the wicked to turn from their ways, the wicked shall die in their iniquity, but their blood I will require at your hand. But if you warn the wicked to turn from their ways, and they do not turn from their ways, the wicked shall die in their iniquity, but you will have saved your life. Now you, mortal, say to the house of Israel, Thus you have said: ‘Our transgressions and our sins weigh upon us, and we waste away because of them; how then can we live?’ Say to them, As I live, says the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from their ways and live; turn back, turn back from your evil ways; for why will you die, O house of Israel?

  • Christianity and National Identity in Twentieth-Century Wales 1 *
    Religion, State & Society, Vol. 27, Nos 3/4, 1999 Christianity and National Identity in Twentieth-Century Wales 1 * D. DENSIL MORGAN The Historical Background to 1914 Although the coming of Christianity to Wales predated the birth of the Welsh nation, the huge missionary thrust which created a specifically Celtic Christian civilisation in the Isle of Britain coincided with the emergence of Wales as a distinct national entity. If the birth of Wales is dated sometime during the latter part of the fifth century, the 'age of the [Celtic] saints' during which David, and a generation pre­ viously, Dyfrig and Illtud fulfilled their ministry, lasted between about 450 and 600 AD. By the beginning of the seventh century Christianity and the life of the emerging nation had become so tightly intertwined as to be virtually indistinguish­ able and for nearly a millennium and a half thereafter Welsh identity and religious affiliation were aspects of the same reality. 'Of all the associations between religion and social values in Wales the most intriguing and longest lasting has been that between religion and nationality. From the outset, the Christian religion seemed to be part of the essence of Welshness.'2 In other words being Welsh meant being Christian. Given the nature of European civilisation during the early Middle Ages such a claim is hardly unique. Wales belonged to Christendom as did many other peoples and kingdoms and as such was happy to identify itself with the faith. However, whereas the onset of modernism and later (and especially) the presuppositions of the Enlightenment threatened to sever the unity between religious affiliation and citizen­ ship, in Wales that unity was preserved.

    ADRODDIAD BLYNYDDOL / ANNUAL REPORT 1928-29 EVAN JONES,LLANWRTYD WELLS 1929001 Ffynhonnell / Source The late Mr Evan Jones, Tynypant, Llanwrtyd Wells. Blwyddyn / Year Adroddiad Blynyddol / Annual Report 1928-29 Disgrifiad / Description Mr Evan Jones who died in February 1928, bequeathed to the Library his collection of archaeological antiquities. Mr Jones made a study for many years of the folk-lore and traditions of Breconshire, and in the course of his investigations collected a large number of objects of agricultural and archaeological interest. These have now been transferred to the Library, but as no provision has been made for the proper preservation and display of antiquities in the Library, some of the more important and valuable of the objects have been placed on permanent deposit in the National Museum of Wales, where they will be carefully preserved. The collection contains circle-and-cross stones from Llangammarch; a large number of stone weights, ranging from four to forty-nine pounds, some with iron rings; stone querns; a stone mortar; a lipe-work seed-lip; a pair of wooden scales; wool combers; cow ties and other agricultural implements; a large number of coins; examples of domestic utensils; fragments of wood piles from a reputed lake dwelling at Trallwng Farm, Abergwesyn, and many other objects.
