David Davies (Dai'r Cantwr)
David Davies, also known as Dai'r Cantwr (''David the singer'') (c. 1812–1874), was a Welsh poet and lay-preacher. He was convicted and sentenced to transportation to Australia for his actions during the Rebecca Riots.
==Early life==
Davies was born in the parish of Llancarfan in about 1812 to John and Mary Davies, his father is believed to have been a tenant of the Duke of Beaufort. Although little of his early personal life is known, in later police records Davies is recorded as a "farm labourer, can plough",〔 and at one time is thought to have worked at a quarry in Newcastle, Bridgend, also serving as a preacher to the local Wesleyians. He is later recorded as attending the Philadelphia Baptist Church in Cadoxton near Barry,〔 one of the earliest Baptist chapels in the area, from which the important Methodist preacher, Christmas Evans is believed to have given sermons.〔(History of Barry ) barrywales.co.uk〕 Davies was nicknamed "Dai'r Cantwr", David the Singer, because he "taught them to sing at church".〔
