Note on Husband: John LEWIS (1) - shared note

"of Pantycrasdy" [A farm near Llanwnog, Montgomeryshire]

Note on Husband: John LEWIS (2)

The following appears inscribed in the Lewis / Roberts Family Bible of 1620:

 

"John Lewis is the onear of this Book

the Lord of heaven upon him look and when his pasin bel

doth tole the Lord of heaven Receive his soul

 

this was mad upon estar day in the of our Lord 1782"

 

It is conceivable, therefore that this could have been written by either John Lewis of Pantycrasdy born 1726, or his son John Lewis born circa June 1750.

 

Most likely John Lewis II born June 1750 as he has written the details of his children's births and christenings within the Bible.13

Text From Source: "My father John Lewis born august 1726"
This information is from a large Welsh Family Bible printed in London by Bonham Norton and John Bill. Printed by the printer who printed for the King. Anno Domini 1620.

There is no evidence to suggest who originally owned the Bible. The earliest reference inscribed within is to
"My father John Lewis [of Pantycrasdy] born August 1726"
Pantycrasdy is a farm near Llanwnog in Mongomeryshire, now Powis. It still exists, although the farmhouse is modern - i.e. not the building John Lewis would have known. The farm presently lies on a minor road that runs parallel to and north of the A470 between Carno and Clatter.
The Bible appears to have remained with the Lewises and went from Morgan Lewis into the posession of his daughter Jane who married William Roberts of Newtown.
It went from Jane to her son Robert Morgan Roberts and then to his son Archibald Lewis Roberts.
Archie gave it to his niece Gwyneth, who gave it to her son Graham Hoadly.
