Llewelyn Wynne Jones

Llewelyn Wynne-Jones was a Welsh Anglican priest[1] in the first third of the 20th century.

This British surname is barrelled, being made up of multiple names. It should be written as Wynne Jones, not Jones.

He was born in 1859 and educated at Shrewsbury [2] and Christ Church, Oxford. Ordained in 1886 [3] he began his career with curacies at West Ham and Upper Tooting. From 1896 he was Vicar of St Mark, Wrexham and a year later was appointed Archdeacon of Wrexham. In addition, between 1915 and 1918 he was a temporary Chaplain to the Forces. He became Dean of St Asaph in 1910,[4] holding the post for 17 years. From then he was Dean Emeritus until his death on 23 February 1936.[5]
