Enw'r crëwr

Hanes bywgraffyddol

Much of the property forming the estate associated with Castell Deudraeth, Penrhyndeudraeth, Merionethshire, formerly called Bron Eryri, was acquired by David Williams (1799-1869). Having unsuccessfully contested the Merionethshire seat in 1859 and 1865, he finally became the Liberal Member of Parliament for the county in 1868. He was succeeded in the Deudraeth estate by his eldest son Sir Arthur Osmond Williams MP (1849-1927), Liberal Member of Parliament for Merionethshire, 1900-1910.
