Evan Davies (1842-1919) was a Welsh Calvinistic Methodist minister, and writer.
As a boy (of the age of 10) he entered employment as a farm worker, later (at 17) becoming a quarryman.
He was however keen to further his education (he had always had a keen interest in history and literature), and after beginning preaching in 1865, in 1868 he moved to study at Bala College, following which, in 1873, he was ordained minister of Llangynog.
His written works include a number of short religious books, his biography of Joseph Thomas of Carno, a short ‘Life’ of Dafydd Dafis of Cywarch (1794 - 1861) (a 'highly original preacher'), and a selection of verse.
