Administrative / Biographical History

Talley Parish History Group was formed in 2003 by Joanna Penberthy, the first woman to be ordained as Bishop of St. Davids, Pat Edwards, who acted as Archivist, Secretary and Treasurer. Amongst others were Kate Arblaster, Celia Parsons, Wyn Edwards, Peter Knott and Andrew Hill. The Group compiled over 800 photographs towards the Peoples Collection Wales website and documents from the late 19th Century to present day contain detailed descriptions of the history and cultural life of Talley and surrounding areas. The group was disbanded sometime in 2023 and its items donated to Carmarthenshire Archives.
