| dbo:abstract | Morris Davies, (bardic name: Meurig Ebrill; 1780 – 26 September 1861), was a Welsh poet from the Dolgellau area of mid Wales. As a young man he worked as an apprentice to a carpenter and later worked in some of the larger houses in the area, such as , Nannau, Hengwrt and . He had developed an interest in poetry at a young age, and was possibly quite influenced by his meeting with Thomas Edwards (Twm o'r Nant) at the age of 13. In 1853 he began publishing his own work (including a number of englynion and carols) on various subjects, often dealing with local occurrences: Diliau Meirion (1853) – followed in 1854 by a second part (with a preface by Griffith Griffiths); Hanes Teithiau a Helyntion Meurig Ebrill gyda 'Diliau Meirion’ o Ddolgellau i Gaerlleon-Gawr, Birkenhead, Llynlleifiad, a Manceinion, a'i Ddychweliad yn ol Drwy Siroedd a Threfydd Gogledd Cymru yn 1854–55 (1855). He died in September 1861. (en) |
