DWNN, JAMES (c. 1570 - c. 1660), poet His earliest poem (NLW MS 3051D (692)) is dated 1594, and his latest (B.M. MS. 51 (73)) 1657. Accordingly, it is possible that he was the eldest son of Lewys Dwnn. The two frequently wrote panegyrics in honour of the same people - the families of Gogerddan, Mathafarn, Gregynog, and the Plasau Duon, Dr. John Davies of Mallwyd, etc., but, for the most part, James Dwnn confined himself to his own
DWNN, JAMES (c. 1570 - c. 1660), prydydd 1594 yw'r dyddiad cynharaf wrth ei gerddi (NLW MS 3051D (692)), a 1657 yw'r diweddaraf (B.M. MS. 51 (73)). Y mae'n bosibl, felly, mai ef oedd mab hynaf Lewys Dwnn. Canai'r ddau yn fynych i'r un personau - teuluoedd Gogerddan, Mathafarn, Gregynog, a'r Plasau Duon, Dr. John Davies, Mallwyd, etc., ond cyfyngai James Dwnn ei hun gan mwyaf i'w ardal ef ei hun. Cadwodd lawer o'i gerddi yn 'Llyfr James
DWNN, LEWYS (c. 1550 - c. 1616) , ond dylid sylwi'n arbennig ar ei gerdd foliant i 'Gaer Dyf,' 1601, ei gywyddau i Dr. John Davies, Mallwyd, a'r esgob Morgan, 1600, a'r marwnadau i Huw Arwystli, 1583, a Siôn Tudur, 1602.
DWNN, LEWYS (c. 1550 - c. 1616) Betws Cedewain, genealogist , but the marks of the decline of the poetic art are only too obvious in his works. Most of these, written in his own hand, are to be found in Peniarth MS 96. His songs were addressed to leading personalities in every part of Wales, but special attention should be paid to his panegyric to ' Caer Dyf' (Cardiff), 1601, his cywyddau addressed to Dr. John Davies, Mallwyd, and bishop William Morgan, 1600
DWNN, OWAIN (c. 1400 - c. 1460), poet , justice of South Wales, when the latter's sun set in 1447. There is evidence (Panton MS. 40 (83)) that he served in Ireland under Richard, duke of York, father of Edward IV, and it was to him, perhaps, that Hywel Dafydd addressed a cywydd which is full of references to that service. Owain's wife was Catherine, daughter of John Wogan of Picton, Pembrokeshire, and their son, Harry Dwnn, and a nephew of
DWNN, OWAIN (c. 1400 - c. 1460) )) iddo wasanaethu yn Iwerddon o dan Richard, dug Efrog, tad Edward IV, ac iddo ef, efallai, y canodd Hywel Dafydd gywydd sy'n llawn cyfeiriadau at y gwasanaeth hwnnw. Gwraig Owain oedd Catherine, merch John Wogan o Bictwn, Sir Benfro, a mab iddynt oedd yr Harri Dwnn a laddwyd, gyda'i gefnder o'r un enw, ym mrwydr Hedgecote Field, Gorffennaf 1469. Enwir Owain Dwnn fel bardd yn bennaf ar sail yr
DYER, JOHN (1699 - 1757), poet Second son of Robert Dyer, a solicitor, living in Abersannen, Llanfynydd. (He bought Aberglasney, in the nearby parish of Llangathen in 1710). John was christened in Llanfynydd church 13 August 1699 and it is likely that he was born at Abersanen shortly before that date. Educated at Westminster, he entered his father's office. After the death of Robert Dyer, John became a pupil of Jonathan
DYER, JOHN (1699 - 1757), bardd Ail fab Robert Dyer, cyfreithiwr a oedd yn byw yn Abersanen, Llanfynydd, Sir Gaerfyrddin, ar y pryd. (Yn 1710 prynodd Aberglasney, ym mhlwyf cyfagos Llangathen). Bedyddiwyd John yn eglwys Llanfynydd 13 Awst 1699 a thebyg mai yn Abersanen y'i ganwyd ychydig cyn hynny. Ar ôl derbyn addysg yn Ysgol Westminster, aeth John i swyddfa ei dad, a phan fu hwnnw farw aeth yn ddisgybl i Jonathan Richardson
