John Lloyd Davies (1 November 1801 – 21 March 1860) was a Welsh lawyer and politician, originally from the Aberystwyth area, who represented Cardigan boroughs in Parliament between 1855 and 1857.
[1] He was born "in humble curcumstances", to which he alluded when seeking election as MP for Cardigan Boroughs in 1855.
In 1825 he married Anne, a daughter of John Lloyd of Allt-yr-odyn, and thus inherited her family estate.
In 1857 he was opposed by Captain Edward Pryse of Gogerddan who, although with little political experience was expected to receive support because of his family connections.
[1] Although he had some sympathy for the rioters' cause, he attempted to deter them from violence, and death threats were made against him as a result.
