Narrative
Blacksmith (on the railways), poet, deacon for the Congregational minister Dr. Gwesyn Jones at Utica. His poetic legacy was published in 1900 in Utica as Caniadau yr Efail (“Songs of the anvil”). Did he arrive in Utica before Thomas Jones died?
Narrative
I haven't found any relationship between the family of Robert Thomas aka Ap Vychan and Mary Thomas, wife of Simon Jones Lôn, or anyone else in the ApSimon family tree, but some such wouldn't surprise me.
I haven't included all the dates from the autobiography here.
