Llanfyllin records

[hanes teulu]

John Wynne, in his "Hanes sir a thref Caernarfon (History of the shire and town of Caernarfon)" - pub 1861, paid tribute to the "Parch John Bryan/Rev John Bryan" who was buried Llanbeblig, 28 May 1856, age 81.
The Herald Cymraeg, 10 Feb 1914 (can be viewed at Welshnewspapers on line) published that tribute.  It referred to his "ffraethder diarhebol (proverbial wit/humour)" and included an example. If you do check it out, John Wynne attributes the quote from the Bible to Deuteronomy Ch 8 v.7 - it is in fact from Revelations, Ch 8 v.1

Thank you 'hanes teulu'. The Oil painting I have as my avatar, is Rev John Bryan. We also have several of the Staffordshire pottery figures that were made of him.

Are you still looking for the birth of John, s/o John and Frances?  I have the Montgomeryshire Records No. MR/PR/58, Parish of Llanfyllin, Register of Baptism & Burials, 1752-1787.
Page 38, #938:

1775:  born, 15 Nov, John, s/o John Bryan flax-dresser and Frances
           baptized:  15 Nov

Thanks Genealiza, but I have all the bmd information now for John and birth info for his siblings from John and Frances Bryan in Llanfyllin.
I also have his mother's bmd but am struggling to find his father's birth. Which I'm starting to suspect may be in Shropshire as I can find nothing about 1750 for John Bryan.
