“The plan of the work, as far as known, has no precedent. It has been sought
to give:
“Volume I. The County — its chief physical features ; its ancient and medicxval annals ;
its past life, as reflected in its Old and Extinct Families, great men, and its roll of
High Sheriffs, &c.
“Volume 2. The Families of the County as now existing — their lineage, dignities,
alliances, and public services ; their connection with the past, as shown by their
pedigrees and escutcheons, &c.
“The effort has been made to present each county, as far as possible, from its
earliest known history — rejecting all legend and romance — as in a sense amity.
Although all counties, as counties, are comparatively recent, the districts of which
they are composed have for many hundred years been in the main under the
governance of a few great historic families, and have in one sense or other had a
common vitality and interest. At the same time, in treating of the local, it has
been necessary to bear in mind its organic relation to the general and imperial.
The fragmentary annals of the counties, therefore, while giving what is of imme
diate local interest, when put together
constitute an outline History of Wales.”
First published in 1872, with a second edition in 1875, this is still the standard work on Welsh family history and the chief
source of genealogical data on the counties and families of the principality. Unlike other books on the subject, it combines
histories of the ancient counties of Wales with family lineages, integrating the two to show the social and genealogical
evolution of the country. Again unlike other works, it is based on the author's personal investigation of county records and
family papers, producing in the end what can only be described as the most complete and faithful compendium of
Welsh family history ever published.
