HISTORY - JENKIN LLOYD JONES

"The Blaenyrallt Ddu farm is significant in Welsh Cultural Heritage, particularly as regards the Unitarian movement in this area. It’s then Welsh tenants, Richard and Mallie Lloyd Jones, emigrated from the house in 1844 to the United States. There is a plaque on the cottage (dating from April 1922) relating to their son, Jenkin Lloyd Jones, who was born in the house in 1843, and he later became a famous preacher in Chicago.

Also, Anna (or Hannah) Lloyd Jones was born in this house, and she later became the mother of the pre-eminent American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright.”
