Two alphabetical lists of preachers who had preached [? in Salem Calvinistic Methodist Chapel] in Dolgellau, 1812-1835. The second list is incomplete (A - D only), but provides greater detail than the first, e.g., the dates of each individual's visit or visits, the names of preachers who preached on the same occasion, etc.

Miscellaneous items including manuscript and typewritten extracts [from the registers of the parish of Gyffylliog, co. Denbigh], 1661-1665, 1721-1735/6, 1739-1751/2, 1761-1769, and 1778-1779; typewritten extracts from the records of the Royal Mint relating to Joseph Harris [brother of Howel Harris, and Assay Master at the Mint]; typewritten copies of the wills of Robert John David of the parish of Trawsfynydd, co. Merioneth, 1741 (probate 1754 ), David Jones of Bala, co. Merioneth, 1742 (probate 1760), and Dows Jones of Bala, widow, 1768 (probate 1772); and a holograph letter from [the Reverend] Daniel Williams, Llangendelrne Vicarage, to [D. E. Jenkins], 1903 (a search for Charles entries in the Llangendeirne parish registers).

Twenty-one holograph letters, 1806-1827 and undated, some imperfect, from [the Reverend] John Humphreys [Calvinistic Methodist minister and author] from Croeswian, Caerwys, and Cil-y-Llwyn [near Bodfari]. Ten of the letters are addressed to Daniel Jones at Chester (1) and at Mr. Painter's, printer, Wrexham, and the remainder, though bearing no address, are in all probability intended for the same person. They refer to personal and family matters, preaching engagements, religious meetings, etc., but deal mainly with the publication and distribution of the parts of a scriptural work on which the writer appears to have been engaged at the time, possibly the translation into Welsh of Samuel Clark's commentary on the Bible (see D. E. Jenkins: The Life of the Rev. Thomas Charles . . ., vol. II, pp. 487-91).

Typewritten notes on 'Emigration from Wales, 1760-1868', 'Chartism in Wales', 'Poor Law', 'Denbigh Priory', and 'Canmlwyddiant Y Drysorfa'; and typewritten extracts from reviews or appreciations of D. E. Jenkins: The Life of the Rev. Thomas Charles . . .
