John Gwenogvryn Evans

Reverend John Gwenogvryn Evans (20 March 1852 – 25 March 1930) was a Welsh palaeographic expert.
Evans was born at Llanybydder in Carmarthenshire. He was apprenticed to a grocer, but returned to school, one of his teachers being William Thomas (Gwilym Marles). He studied theology and became a Unitarian minister, but gave up his pastorate because of ill-health. He began to take an interest in ancient Welsh manuscripts, and set up his own printing press in order to create facsimiles of major Welsh medieval manuscripts, such as the books of Aneirin and Taliesin. In 1880 he moved to Oxford, where he spent most of the rest of his life. From 1894 to 1920, Evans was employed by the Historical Manuscripts Commission, producing a major ''Report on Manuscripts in the Welsh Language''. In 1905 he facilitated the purchase of the Peniarth manuscript collection from Sir John Williams, 1st Baronet Williams. Since 1909, this has been lodged in the National Library of Wales at Aberystwyth. Evans retired to Llanbedrog in Caernarfonshire, where he ran his own printing press as a hobby. He and his wife Edith are both buried there.
After the publication of the first volume in the ''Series of Old Welsh Texts'' in 1887, Evans was awarded the MA honoris causa from the University of Oxford. In May 1901 he received the degree D.Litt honoris causa from the same university.
