Edward Laws

Cymrogogoch - I wouldn't dismiss Laws as a source too readily; yes, he was a 19th century scholarly historian with some 19th century opinions and attitudes, but is a valid contributor to written Welsh history, in my view. By all means find more up to date sources to back him up, though... T. Tony Holkham (Talk) 15:22, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

Hi Tony,

It just seems strange to me that for a fairly brisk county history we don't have anything from the last century. Especially as a source for well attested assertions such as "Henry Tudor, born at Pembroke Castle in 1457, landed an army in Pembrokeshire in 1485 and marched to Cardigan"

I think this would be better served by pp123-124 of David Rees' "The Son of Prophecy: Henry Tudor's road to Bosworth"

I'll happily source and amend the other three references if that's OK. Cymrogogoch (talk) 18:23, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

Yes, absolutely OK. But might be worth retaining the Laws references for balance? Cheers, T. Tony Holkham (Talk) 19:22, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

I've added Laws to Further reading in case the inline refs to his book are lost. I think it's an important book for Pembrokeshire history. Tony Holkham (Talk) 19:29, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

OK, well my intent was to remove it as a source, but if you feel strongly about keeping it I'll leave it. Cymrogogoch (talk) 20:17, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

Stubs

All the existing Pembrokeshire geography stubs are de-stubbed. The red links in List of places in Pembrokeshire should provide ample fun to create more. ;o) Tony Holkham (Talk) 11:00, 21 September 2024 (UTC)
