Lloyd George correspondence

Over two hundred letters, 1898-1915, and related papers, [c. 1904]-[c. 1919], of David Lloyd George, 1st earl Lloyd George of Dwyfor. The bulk of the correspondence is addressed to Lloyd George but there are also a few notes in Lloyd George's hand. Most of the letters relate to Welsh affairs, and in particular to the Disestablishment question and the contentious Welsh Church Commission, 1906-1907; other subjects include education, the investiture of the Prince of Wales, 1911, and the First World War. For the most part the correspondents are Welsh politicians and public figures; there are also letters from the 1st earl of Halifax (1) 1914, Randall Davidson, archbishop of Canterbury (1) 1906, and Herbert Gladstone (2) 1907-1910. The main correspondents are A.G. Edwards, bishop of St Asaph (5) 1906-1915, Sir Francis Edwards, MP (18) 1903-1915, Sir Samuel T. Evans, MP (6) 1907-1908, Sir Henry Jones (8) 1906-1907, Sir J.
