Ancestral relevance on Old Chalice
« on: Monday 01 September 25 08:15 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I have this record of a silver Chalice that was give  to St Michael's Church in Llanfihangel Nant Bran in 1615. Please see attached..

There are two inscriptions on the Chalice that I would like to clarify..
They are:
   G       and          G
T     P                T     B

The incumbent Priest was David John Gwilym and I think the donors of the silver chalice had their own initials inscribed when it was presented to him

I think the "G" in both inscriptions indicate that they were members of the Gwilym family, possibly David John Gwilym's sons. They had initials  T P and T B, so may have had the patrynomic names
TP Gwilym and TB Gwilym, but were better known as Thomas Pugh and Thomas Beavan, both around Merthyr Cynog at that time.

Any Comments will be much appreciated..!
Thanks
