  • 'Clandestine' marriages were secret events which enabled couples to marry legally without a formal church ceremony. The marriage usually took place away from the homes of either party, without banns, and often without a licence. These ceremonies were often conducted to avoid publicity or to allow a marriage without the consent of the parents if the husband and wife to be were under the age of 21. As they were conducted in secret, surviving documentation relating to these marriages is rare. This is the clandestine marriage certificate of Samuel Edwards of the parish of Llanfihangel Ystrad and Margaret Jones of the parish of Cilie Aeron in Ceredigion. The marriage took place a good way away at the parish of Llanfynydd in the deanery of Carmarthen. Although partly written in Latin, the bulk of the certificate is in English and reads as follows: 'God Save King George Amen Whereas Samuel Edwards of the parish of Llanvihangel Ystrad [inserted above] in the county of Cardigan of the one part, & Margaret Jones of the parish of Killie Ayron in the county of Cardigan of the other part were married at Llanfinith [Llanfynydd] in the Deanery of Carmarthen the 28th day of Septemb[er] Month 1753. According to the Rites and Ceremonies of the Church of England ...'

  • This book was produced to mark the unveiling of the Lampeter War Memorial on Friday, 24 October 1921. It contains photographs of all the men and women of Lampeter killed during the First World War as well as those who died later, as a result of the fighting. A short biographical note is included under each photograph. The memorial was designed by Sir W. Goscombe John and in the book's introduction, the Honourary Secretary of the Lampeter War Memorial committee writes 'Let the Memorial for ever say that we desired to honour the brave who died for us'.

  • According to the 1871 census, Emily Ann Lloyd lived with her parents, older sister and uncle, above the National Provincial Bank in Lampeter, where her father was the bank manager. A native of Hay, Breconshire, William A. Lloyd had moved to Lampeter with his wife, Elizabeth, who was born in Margam. At the time of the census, Emily was 9 years old and her sister Hessie 10. Emily has carefully copied out the letters she has sent to various friends and family between 10 March 1871 and 24 September [1872] . This may have been an exercise set by her governess, Sopia[sic] Humphreys from Aberystwyth. Emily writes of her day to day activities and has much to say about her pets, including a monkey. Unfortunately, all the animals seem to die during the period covered by the letters. Although most of the letters are written from Lampeter, the family move to Conwy and the later letters are written from there. These letters provide an insight into the life of a middle- class child living in Wales during the late nineteenth century.
