The Reverend John Davies was a Welsh Congregational Minister, writer, linguist and poet. One source has Davies' date of death listed as 10 December 1884, separately noting that it was his funeral service that was conducted on 16 December 1884.
John Davies was a Welsh (Glamorganshire) stone mason, and a composer. He began his career as a stone-mason, notoriously working by both day and night. He had been taught to play the dulcimer by a lodger at the age of about fourteen, but it was not until he was about thirty that he seriously began to study music, becoming both a performer and a composer.

Golud yr Oes was a 19th-century Welsh language periodical, first published by printer and publisher Hugh Humphreys (1817-1896) in Caernarfon in 1862. It contained a wide range of articles on subjects such as literature, music, history, religion, science, and nature. The journal is notable for the innovative use of engravings from steel and copper plates, making it one of the most ambitious and visual Welsh periodicals of the period.
The Oxford Book of Welsh Verse (1962), edited by Thomas Parry, is an anthology of Welsh-language poetry stretching from Aneirin in the 6th century to Bobi Jones in the 20th. No translations of the poems are provided, but the introduction and notes are in English. It was the first anthology to give the reader a thorough idea of Welsh poetry in its entirety through 1400 years, containing as it does 370 poems, of which 59 cannot be securely attributed while the rest are the work of 146 named poets. It went through eight editions in its first 21 years, and was supplemented in 1977 by the publication of Gwyn Jones's Oxford Book of Welsh Verse in English.
