About William Thomas

William Thomas, bardic name Islwyn, was a Welsh language poet and Christian clergyman. He was born near Ynysddu, in the historic county of Monmouthshire, South East Wales to Morgan Thomas from Ystradgynlais and Mary Jones from Blaengwawr, Aberdare and was the youngest of nine children. His best known poems are entitled Yr Ystorm which he wrote in response to the sudden death of his young fiancée. His poetry was not always greatly regarded in his own lifetime. However, he was respectively called Monmouthshire's main and most important contributor to Welsh literature, the greatest poet of Gwent in the 19th century and the finest Welsh poet of the century.
