  • Dyfed Invertebrate Group Has Received Amongst Entomologists Nationwide and There Are Now Almost One Hundred Subscribers to the Newsletter
    DYFED INVERTEBRATE GROUP NEWSLETTER N°. 2 June 1986 We have been gratified by the reception that the formation of the Dyfed Invertebrate Group has received amongst entomologists nationwide and there are now almost one hundred subscribers to the Newsletter. This is a sound base upon which to establish our contribution to invertebrate conservation in west Wales and the specialists involved cover a very wide range of groups. With the summer now upon us (or so I'm reliably informed) the impetus should be there for us all to get out 'in the field' and add to our knowledge of the distribution and ecological requirements of the county fauna. Do remember to send in your records to the relevant county recorders and keep us informed of any interesting observations. The Newsletter is here to ensure that significant records and accounts of methodical surveys find their way in to print. We would welcome more feed-back from subscribers, both in the form of articles for the Newsletter and suggestions for the improvement of DIG - do drop us a line from time to time and tell us how your invertebrate work is progressing. Which brings me to the thorny problem of subscriptions! The DIG Newsletter is produced entirely through the kindness of NCC Dyfed-Powys in allowing us access to secretarial and photo-copying facilities. However, we would appreciate assistance with postage and hence the subscription for 1986 will be four First Class Stamps. Please send your 'subscription' to the Editor during the course of the summer. We regret that the September issue of the Newsletter will not be sent to members who have not forwarded their subscription in time.

  • Captain David Jones, 10Th Battalion (1St Rhondda) Welch Regiment
    Captain David Jones, 10th Battalion (1st Rhondda) Welch Regiment. Captain David Jones was born in Llanddewi-Brefi, near Tregaron in 1893. After leaving Tregaron County School, he held teaching posts in schools in Llanddewi-Brefi and Pontrhydfendigaid, before going to Aberystwyth University. While he was at University he was a member of the Officer Training Corps, and joined the army in 1916. In a letter home to his mother, he explains why he felt compelled to join up: “Cofiwch da chwi fod y wlad hon bob munud yn disgwyl yr Almaenwyr i lanio yma, wedi hyny ni fyddwn ond fel y Belgians drueiniaid a’u cartrefi wedi eu rhwygo. Credaf ymhellach y buasai’n well gennych golli un mab na cholli’r holl deulu.” [“Remember that this country is expecting the Germans to land at any moment, and that then we’ll be like the Belgians, with our homes destroyed. I think you’d rather lose one son than lose the whole family”.] Captain Jones fought in the Mametz Wood offensive, and died on 12th July 1916, aged 25. He has no known grave, but his name is on the Thiepval Memorial to the missing of the Somme. National Library of Wales Trefor Lewis, Royal Army Medical Corps (RAMC) (Featured in the ‘Remembering for Peace’ exhibition) Trefor was born in Aberystwyth and attended the County School / Ysgol Ardwyn, Aberystwyth. He was appointed as a 'trainee librarian' in the National Library in August 1912. On 27th October 1915 he left the Library and joined the Royal Army Medical Corps. He was transferred to France, where he was badly wounded on 8th August.

  • Dyfed Final Recommendations News Release
    NEWS RELEASE Issued by the Telephone 02920 395031 Boundary Commission for Wales Caradog House Fax 02920 395250 1-6 St Andrews Place Cardiff CF10 3BE Date 25 August 2004 FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCIES IN THE PRESERVED COUNTY OF DYFED The Commission propose to make no change to their provisional recommendations for five constituencies in the preserved county of Dyfed. 1. Provisional recommendations in respect of Dyfed were published on 5 January 2004. The Commission received eleven representations, five of which were in support of their provisional recommendations. Three of the representations objected to the inclusion of the whole of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division within the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency, one objected to the name of the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency and one suggested the existing arrangements for the area be retained. 2. The Commission noted that, having received no representation of the kind mentioned in section 6 (2) of the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986, there was no statutory requirement to hold a local inquiry. The Commission further decided that in all the circumstances they would not exercise their discretion under section 6 (1) to hold an inquiry. Final recommendations 3. The main objection to the provisional recommendations was in respect of the inclusion of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division in the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency. It was argued that the division should be included in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr on the grounds that the majority of the electorate in the division fell within that constituency and that inclusion in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr rather than Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire would reduce the disparity between the electorates of the two constituencies and would bring them closer to the electoral quota.

  • Ceredigion Welsh District Council Elections Results 1973-1991
    Ceredigion Welsh District Council Elections Results 1973-1991 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.

  • Capel Soar-Y-Mynydd, Ceredigion
    Capel Soar-y-mynydd, Ceredigion Richard Coates 2017 Capel Soar-y-mynydd, Ceredigion The chapel known as Soar-y-mynydd or Soar y Mynydd lies near the eastern extremity of the large parish of Llanddewi Brefi, in the valley of the river Camddwr deep in the “Green Desert of Wales”, the Cambrian Mountains of Ceredigion (National Grid Reference SN 7847 5328). It is some eight miles south-east of Tregaron, or more by road. Its often-repeated claim to fame is that it is the remotest chapel in all Wales (“capel mwyaf pellennig/anghysbell Cymru gyfan”). Exactly how that is measured I am not sure, but it is certainly remote by anyone in Britain’s standards. It is approached on rough and narrow roads from the directions of Tregaron, Llanwrtyd Wells, and Llandovery. It is just east of the now vanished squatter settlement (tŷ unnos) called Brithdir (whose site is still named on the Ordnance Survey 6" map in 1980-1), and it has become progressively more remote as the local sheep-farms have been abandoned, most of them as a result of the bad winter of 1946-7. Its name means ‘Zoar of the mountain’ or ‘of the upland moor’. Zoar or its Welsh equivalent Soar is a not uncommon chapel name in Wales. It derives from the mention in Genesis 19:20-30 of a place with this name which served as a temporary sanctuary for Lot and his daughters and which was spared by God when Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed. (“Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.
