PREFACE TO THE REVISED AND SECOND EDITION.
The first edition of this work was published in 1887, and was sold out in a very short time. Orders were continually sent for copies, but none could be found in the market. Eventually, J. E, Southall, Newport, who has taken deep interest in Welsh literature, wrote to ask the author for permission to publish a second edition of it. Arrangements were made to revise the work carefully and to bring it up to date. The omission of Monmouthshire Place-Names is due to the following fact: The author won a
 £10 10s. prize in the Newport National Eisteddfod, 1897, for “A Dictionary of Welsh Names of Places and Rivers in Monmouthshire,” and it is intended to publish a separate edition of this in due course. The author gratefully acknowledges the service rendered by S. J. Evans, Esq., M. A., Llangefni, in revising this work. His suggestions were useful and destined to enhance the value of the work.

 

In conclusion, the author repeats what he said in the first edition: “In writing upon a subject so full of intricacies and difficulties the author is far from satisfied with his etymological attempts in many instances.”

T. MORGAN. January, 10th, 1912.

Am yr awdur: Thomas Morgan (ffugenw: Afanwyson) (1850 – 1939). Gweinidog gyda’r Bedyddwyr fu Afanwyson, ac hefyd yn eisteddfodwr, llenor, bywgraffiadurwr a hanesydd. Daw’r enw o’r ffaith iddo gael ei eni yng Nghwmafan. Yn 1900, yn 49/50 oed, aeth i gymryd gofal ar eglwys Horeb yn Sgiwen, sydd yn esbonio ei steil yn awdur ar glawr yr ail argraffiad: Thomas Morgan (Skiwen).
