Owen Wynne Jones (4 March 1828 – 4 April 1870), often known by his bardic name of Glasynys, was a Welsh clergyman, folklorist, poet, novelist and short-story writer.

He left the periodical, moved to Porthmadog, Llŷn where he married, and settled in Tywyn, where he died at the age of forty-two.

Owen Wynne Jones wrote poetry, collected in Fy Oriau Hamddenol (1854),[2] Lleucu Llwyd (1858) and Yr Wyddfa (1877), historical novels including Dafydd Llwyd, neu Dyddiau Cromwel, articles and letters which were published in Y Brython, Baner y Groes, Y Geninen and Yr Herald Gymraeg, and short stories, retelling folk tales and describing folk customs, which appeared in the anthology, Cymru Fu (1862).

An essay, 'Welsh Fairy Tales' (1900) by John Rhys, draws freely on the work of Owen Wynne Jones, and comments on the likely extent to which he combined traditional stories from various sources with his own imaginative treatment of his material.

Kate Roberts considers his life and accomplishments alongside those of Richard Hughes Williams in her essay, Dau Lenor o Ochr Moeltryfan (1970), and a selection of his work is translated by Rob Mimpriss.
