Philip Dafydd

Philip Dafydd (c. 1732 – c. 1814) was a Welsh Methodist exhorter, and poet. He lived in the Newcastle Emlyn area, and was by trade a clog maker. Prior to the construction of a local Methodist chapel in 1776, he is known to have held regular society meetings at his own house. His poetic works include elegies on Daniel Rowland (printed in 1797) and William Williams Pantycelyn (printed in 1791). [1]
