List of Rectors

Little is known of the early rectors who served the parish of Llanymawddwy. No reference can be found in "The History of the Diocese of St. Asaph" published at the beginning of the 20th century by D.R.Thomas, presumably because the Dyfi valley churches were transferred from the St.Asaph diocese to Bangor in 1859. To date, no comparable volume has come from Bangor, but in his "The Diocese of Bangor .during three centuries, 17th to 19th inclusive" A.V.Price lists the following under Llanymawddwy:

David Priest 1387

John ap Iorwerth 1394

Gwell ap Ieuan ap Ddafydd 1394
