The Church at Sharon
The Church at Sharon, Goetre
The Goetre parish lies about midway between Pontypool and Abergavenny.
In 1823, one James Lewis, a member from Capel-Cyffin, Breconshire, lived at the Wern Farm in this parish. He and his wife kindly opened their house to the preaching of the gospel; and it seems that the eccentric Jenkin Harris, being single, made his home at the Wern and went about the farmhouses and cottages to talk with the people about their salvation, and induce them to go and hear him preach on Sunday.
The services were held at the Wern for about a year; and the Lord’s Supper was administered there to the few members who resided in the district.
As there was no deacon among the few members Jenkin Harris himself distributed the bread and wine.
During the period that the services were held at the Wern, some were led to seek membership who were baptised in a pool near that house, and received into Christian fellowship into the little flock.
The accommodation at the Wern at last became too limited, and in 1824 the services were moved to Tymawr in the same parish.
Pastor John Evans of Penygarn in Pontypool preached there the first Sunday after the removal.
During the three years Jenkin Harris remained here he preached only about two Sundays in each month. The students from Abergavenny and others supplied on other Sundays.
After the removal of the services to Tymawr, Mr. Henry Davies was appointed deacon. The services were held there about two years and six months, during which very efficient work was done.
Several were added to the members, who were baptised from time to time by Pastor Jenkin Harris, D. Roberts, Trosnant, Pontypool, F. Hiley, Llanwenarth, Lewis Lewis, Glascoed, and Richard Owen, Blaenafon.
In 1826, the members who were thus increasing in number were duly formed into a church; and the church was received into the south-eastern the same year at its annual meeting held at Caerphilly.
Soon after the formation of the church it was found that the room at Tymawr was becoming too small to accommodate the increasing congregation; and the members agreed among themselves to have a suitable place of worship, which was erected on a plot of the Wern Farm, near the main road.
The land, sufficient for the chapel site, a good graveyard etc., was leased for 999 years. The cost of the erection of the little sanctuary amounted to £210. The opening services were held on January 3rd and 4th 1827, with pastors M. Lewis, Chapelyffin; J. Morris, Newport; B. Williams, Beulah; R. Prichard, Cardiff; R. Owen, Blaenafon; J. Michael, Ponthir; and John Francis, Caerleon.
The good old itinerant pastor Jenkin Harris left the place about the time the chapel was built; but he was fully and earnestly employed in other places, endeavouring to extend the kingdom of his Lord, as he had been here.
Soon after the opening of the chapel Wm. Benj. Williams of Trosnant, Pontypool accepted the cordial invitation of the church to take its oversight, he was ordained on 17th October 1827 when Pastor D. Phillips, Caerleon spoke on the nature of the Christian church, put the questions to the pastors elect, and offered prayer, and Pastors D. Roberts, Pontypool; preached to the young pastor, and James Michael, Ponthir to the church. Pastors W. Thomas, Blaenau; J. Lewis, Llanwenarth; M. Lewis, Chapelyffin; D. Lewis, Llangwm; and M. Richards, Penyrheol, officiated in the other services.
Mr. Williams, like his father, was a smith by trade. His father was a member and assistant preacher at Trosnant, Pontypool for 50 years; and he took the leading part in establishing the church at Cwmbran where he ended his days as a member and faithful preacher, and where his body lies at rest.
When he settled here the members were about 40 in number. Mr. Williams proved a very suitable man here, being good natured, patient and careful in all his movements; yet very earnest and devoted to his work. He had a remarkably sweet voice which rendered his preaching very acceptable and effective, and he was especially effective in prayer.
He was generally asked to introduce the ten o’clock service on the day of the association. The thousands could hear his melodious voice, and his earnest and sweet prayer always prepared the multitude to hear the joyful sound of the gospel. He laboured here with much acceptance and considerable success for 18 years.
As the statistics of the churches was not so fully entered in the association, better them as they are now, we are not able to state how many were added to the church during his pastorate.
We may calculate, as the membership of the church in 1848 was 106 that it was not much under 100 in 1845 when he left.
In the summer of 1845 he received the warm invitation of the church at Darrenfelin, which he accepted, and settled there in the autumn of that year.
In December 1846 pastor Benj. Williams was succeeded by Mr. John Edred Jones, who came here from Pontypool College. He was admitted into college from the church in Cardigan in August 1845. For some reason he had to leave college before the end of his term, and he arranged to come here to establish a school, and early in 1847 he was established as pastor of this church. He was a man of considerable power and he laboured here with considerable success till the latter part of 1853 when he emigrated to America.
During his pastorate 40 were added to the church by baptism, and 25 by restoration or letter. Membership when he resigned was 96, Sunday school scholars 25, teachers 3. He ministered in America in Pittston, Cincinnati. He ended his days at Pittston 12th Oct 1884 aged 63.
Pastor Morgan Davies who removed here from Groesgoch, Pembs. in 1856 succeeded Pastor John Edred Jones. He was a native of Merthyr Tydfil; was received into church membership and called to preach at Ebenezer in the said town; and admitted into Pontypool College in 1840. He was ordained at Llaurhystyd and Moriah Cardiganshire, Jan 14 and 15th 1845; whence he removed to Groesgoch, and thence here.
He was a man of peculiar talent, possessed of considerable poetic genius, but owing to his studious mode of living and strong poetic turn of mind he was often lacking in presence of mind; and would often do and say strange things, which led some to regard him as an oddity.
He was a good man and sincere Christian; but on account of his peculiarities he was not very successful as a minister of the gospel. He continued to labour here until the summer of 1860. During his pastorate 9 were added to the church by baptism, and 17 by restoration or letter. Membership when he closed his pastorate 79; Sunday school scholars 30; teachers 4.
Mr. Davies spent the remainder of his life as member and assistant minister of Mill Street Church, Aberdare, useful and respected at home, and away from home, preaching the gospel as required.
After a short illness he passed away Jan 24th 1868, and was buried in the Aberdare cemetery on the 31st of the same month.
After the resignation of Pastor Morgan Davies, the church was without a pastor for about 12 years, during which 32 were baptised and 49 were received either by restoration or letter; the Pontypool College being so near the students supplied the pulpit during the said years.
Towards the end of 1871 William Isaac Richards of Pontypool College accepted the invitation of the church as was ordained as its pastor early in 1872.
He was born March 25th 1841 at Cae’rgof Farm, Pontycelyn, Breconshire. He was the son of Christian parents, he became early inclined to follow the saviour, and was baptised at Pontycelyn by Pastor Wm. Harris, now of Aberdare. Soon after his baptism his parents removed from Cae’rgof to Llanwrtyd Wells, and in the church there he was shortly encouraged to preach, which after due consideration he did with much acceptance.
Being desirous of preparing himself for the work of the ministry he spent two to three years at the Graig Academy, Swansea, where he succeeded in carrying off the first prize in Greek and several other subjects.
In 1870 he was admitted into Pontypool College where he supported himself being of weak constitution and a cripple. Although he was not strong and obliged to use crutches, he laboured well here during the years he held the pastorate.
His preaching was characterised by thoughtfulness, freshness and pointedness; and he led a beautiful life, which rendered him a power in the district and wither so ere he went.
Alas! His noble career was cut short, on June 24th 1881 he was called away from the work he much loved, his mortal remains were interred in the burial ground attached to the sacred edifice wherein he rendered noble service to the blessed master.
During his pastorate 33 were added to the church by baptism and 46 by restoration and letter. Membership when he died 76; Sunday school scholars 50; teachers, 6.
Mr. W.G. Vaughan succeeded Pastor J. Richards from Pontypool College who was ordained here in June 1882. He went to college in August 1879 from the church of Gogmau, Cardiganshire, where he had been received a member and called to preach.
His pastorship was very short, he was not blessed with strong constitution, and doubtless he found the work and ministry onerous and trying to his weak frame.
Several were added to the church, 6 by baptism, and 26 by restoration or letter, for some reason however, he was led, early in 1882 to close his pastorship, leave and join the Anglican Church. Membership when he resigned 59; Sunday school scholars 50; teachers 5.
In the spring of 1890 pastor T. L. Thomas of Merthyr Tydfil accepted the invitation of the church and commenced his labours here April 13th of the said year.
He was called to preach at Treherbert, Glam. admitted into Haverfordwest College in 1876; ordained at Aberaeron in 1879, whence he removed to Porthcawl, Glam., about 1881, there to Ferryside, Carmarthenshire in 1884, and thence to Merthyr Tydfil whence he removed here in 1890.
His pastorate again was short owing to some disagreement he deemed wise to resign and he closed his ministry Dec 13th 1891. During his short pastorate; 3 baptised; 9 received by letter; membership when he left 44; Sunday school scholars 50; teachers 7.
The cause was very low when Mr. Thomas left. Very little unity, love and joy among the members.
After this Mr. Thomas took an insurance agency and resided in Pontypool.
Early in 1879 arrangements were made in order to have Mr. B. Davies missioner to take the oversight of this church as well as that of Llangwn and Cwmera.
The committee of the mission directed him to discontinue his services at Llangibby and take charge of this church.
Of course he continued to have very little more than one Sunday of each month but he attended the weekly services; and assisted the church to get supplies when he was not here.
This arrangement continued till the committee in the summer of 1899, removing him to take charge of the new cause at Six Bells and spend all his time there for a limited period.
So Mr. Davies closed his pastorate on Sunday July 30th 1899 and commenced his labours at Six Bells the Sunday following.
During his service here one Sunday per month and in the weekly meetings 14 were added to the church by baptism; 20 by restoration and letter; membership when he closed his ministry 65; Sunday school scholars 30; teachers 2.
Towards the end of 1900 pastor Henry Iltyd Jenkins, formerly of Bethel, Merthyr Tydfil accepted the invitation of the church and settled here as pastor.
He is a native of Lantwit Vardre near Pontypridd. There he was received into membership and called to preach. He was trained at Cardiff College; on leaving College he was ordained at Bethel, Merthyr in 1894. Having resigned the pastorate there he was without charge for some months before he settled as pastor of this church.
During his pastorate of 2 years duration he received 3 by baptism; 5 by restoration and letter; having received and accepted cordial invitation from the central church at Tredegar he commenced his labours there in early Jan 1903.
Membership when he resigned 62; Sunday school 45; teachers 5.
Mr. Abraham Bowen Morgan A.J.S, who came from Cardiff College, succeeded Pastor H.I. Jenkins in June 1903 and was formerly ordained in July following. He was born at Pontypool.
In his early days the family moved to Treorchy, Rhondda Valley, Glam, where he was brought up and educated at the board school.
In accordance with the other boys in the locality he went to earn his living in the coal pit. When he was 15 years of age he was baptised and received into church membership at Moriah, Pentre in the same valley, by pastor John Lewis Jones, now of Glyneiniog.
At the age of 19 years he was called to preach by his mother church; in October 1898 he was admitted to college and on leaving he settled here as pastor, as we have stated.
In about 2 years after his settlement Mr. Morgan took to him a wife, a daughter of one of the good brethren who served in the church as deacons, one who is likely to be en excellent helpment for him.
In the spring of 1908 Mr. Morgan received the cordial invitation of the church at Moriah, Abercynon, Glamorgan to which he succeeded and entered his work there in June following which was a great loss to this little church.
The small rural church is thus often deprived of their good pastor who is called to serve in more populous districts.
During his short pastorate Mr. Morgan laboured with considerable success; 40 were received into church membership; 23 by baptism; and 17 by restoration and letter; membership when his ministry closed 83; Sunday school scholars 67; teachers 7.
Pastor Abraham Bowen Morgan was succeeded by Mr. Havelock Roderick from Cardiff Baptist college, who accepted the call of the church and was formerly ordained on Wednesday October 12th 1910, in the afternoon additions were delivered by pastors T.C. Davies, Aberbeeg; B. Davies, Pontnewynydd; J.L. Roderick, Bromley; W. Davies, (Presby) Llanover; Mr. T. Hughes, student and others, after which Prichard Evans delivered and change to their pastor.
In the evening, service was held with pastor DJ Benjamin, Blaenavon and J.L. Roderick, Bromley.
The new pastor is a son of D.L. Roderick, late of New Quay and was called to preach under the ministry of his father.
He was admitted into college in 1905, on leaving college he accepted the calling of this church, as we have stated.

Highways Petition – Goytre Names
To Her Majesty’s Justices Of The Peace, For the County of Monmouth, Assembled In Quarter Sessions, At Usk
The Humble Petition of The Rate-Payers of The Parish of Goytre
Sheweth —
That we, the undersigned Landowners, Tenant Farmers, and Tradesmen, being Rate-Payers, in the Parish of Goytre perceive, with great regret, that it is your intention, at the next Quarter Sessions, to confirm the Provisional Order made at the last Sessions to adopt the new Highway Act, in the County of Monmouth,
That we cannot regard this Act in any other light than that of direct interference with our vested rights, while we are convinced that, in our own case, and probably, in that of many others, the burden of Taxation, which already weighs too heavily on our industry, will, under the provisions of this Act will be greatly augmented.
That our Highways, greatly improved, as they have been, within the last four years, are now in fair average condition, and will compare favourably with the Highways of any other district, so that we can repair by an average Annual Rate of six pence in the pound: we are, therefore, most unwilling to commit ourselves to a new measure, which will not only deprive us of our parochial rights, but will necessarily be expensive in its operation.
That experience has shown us in the case of the Poor Law, that whatever advantages that enactment may be supposed to possess, the working of it swallows up an enormous per centage of our Rates, and that there is every reason to fear that, under the Act in question, the Paid Staff, and other things, will cost as much as the whole outlay required to maintain our roads according to the present system, – a system which, although in some respects defective, is not, on that account, to summarily condemned: and we therefore very earnestly, but most respectfully beg that you will not confirm your Provisional Order in respect of the fore-mentioned Act..
And your Petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pay

Chapel Ed, Goetre
CHAPEL ED, GOETRE.
BY MR. ABRAHAM MORRIS F.R..HIST.S., NEWPORT.
Chapel Ed was erected in 1807 by the followers of Howell Harris and his Methodist movement. Another chapel was erected at Llanmartin in 1794, and there the Societies of the Ford, the North Row Farm, Redwick, and the Chapel farm, Penhow, foregathered to worship God until the erection of the present Chapel. Chapel Ed was not erected until 1807, and the Cause has been carried on, on the same site without a break to the present day, first as a Welsh Cause until the late Seventies of the last Century but since that time as an English Cause.
Perhaps the name may be a puzzle to many of our readers, but it has the stamp and authority of Holy Writ upon it, and shows the respect and thoughtfulness which the old fathers had for the sanction of Scripture in all they did. “and the children of Reuben and the Children of God called the altar Ed; for it shall be a witness between us that the Lord is God” (Joshua xxii., 34). This little sanctuary has most certainly verified its name through all the generations. It has been an “Ed”—a witness, to the protecting care of the Divine for His people, notwithstanding changes and great difficulties, which threatened extinction. It has been at times, especially in the transition period from Welsh to English, “a bruised reed,” but has never been broken, and “a smoking flax,” but not “quenched.”
As a Connexion we have had another Chapel Ed in our annals, one of an earlier foundation as a structure than that of Goetre, and which takes us back to the time when we lost Groeswen and the New Inn (Pontypool) as Methodist causes, because of the opposition of the Leaders of that time, to ordain ministers to pastoral care of Churches. In the closing years of the Eighteenth Century the church at Groeswen was under the spiritual care of William Edwards, the famous bridge-builder, who was a recognised exhorter of the Methodists. While he was its overseer the Church was more Methodistical than Independent, and as in the case of Morgan John Lewis of New Inn, application was made to the Association that Edwards should be ordained to the full work of the ministry. But it was peremptorily refused in consequence of the old fathers’ diffidence to separate themselves from the Established Church. It is a well-known fact that during the oversight of Groeswen by William Edwards, the preachers of our Connexion occupied that famous pulpit as frequently and with equal regularity as did the preachers of the Independents. When William Edwards died Groeswen Church was for a considerable time without a pastor, until Griffith Hughes of Crugybar, an eloquent and powerful preacher was asked to become the pastor.
The Methodists Section of the Church saw that the fraternity was becoming more and more Independent, so they deemed it advisable to sever their connection with Groeswen and it’s Methodist associations. They erected a Chapel in the parish of Bedwas, and called it “Chapel Ed.” But the cause was in no wise a success, and indeed it was not likely to thrive as long as such an eloquent and popular preacher as Griffith Hughes held sway at Groeswen, not far distant. The Cause at Chapel Ed, Bedwas, was therefore discontinued and a move was made to Ystrad Mynach, on the Glamorgan side the Rhymni River, and there the work has continued to this day. The old ruins of this Chapel Ed are still in existence.
From the Trevecca MSS we learn that Howel Harris frequently visited Goetre before the differences arose between him and Daniel Rowland, and that the cause here was under the care of Morgan Jones, who with Morgan John Lewis of the New Inn, in close proximity, had the oversight of the Societies in Monmouthshire. In Morgan Jones’s report of the Goetre Society to the Association, he records as follows in 1743 :—
“They are thirteen members with one overseer who is a very faithful Xtian. There are only two brethren members in the Church and these are married. There are others who I believe are Christians, but have not yet joined the Society. The members have experienced a fair share of religious freedom, and an indication that they have been justified by grace, some more, some less . . . . They manifest great openness to one another, and to Stephen Jones, the private exhorter. I feel sure that the Lord has blessed my labours among them.”
There is also report on the Glascoed Society of nine members, not far distant from Goetre, which was also under the care of Stephen Jones. There is no Methodist cause at Glascoed now.
On September 19th, 1744, Howel Harris and his wife visited Goetre, and preached there on a Monday night. He was on his way to Watford Association.
Upon one of his visits here, at a Church Meeting held in April, 1747, he admonished the members for their negligence. His Diary records :—
“I showed them what lethargy possessed them, that they came not to the New Inn, to the public meetings. By such conduct they hampered the great work. They were, too, guilty of absenting themselves from the services of the Parish Church, and the Holy Communion, that they weakened his hands, and if they did not reform, he would not come among them again. Then I spoke of the Blood and its efficacy, and the Spirit was poured out upon us, and we were refreshed.”
Early in January, 1748, Harris stayed a night at Goetre, while he was on his way to the West of England. On the second day of the New Year he preached at the New inn, and it appears pretty certain, though there is no record, that the members of the flock at Goetre were there in goodly numbers, after the gentle reprimand administered to them on the previous occasion. The reason for his visit to the New Inn this time was an important Monthly Meeting, held to restore William Edwards of Groeswen, who had been prevented from preaching for a time on account of heterodoxy in doctrine. Howel Harris put only two questions to the defaulting exhorter. The first was
:—“Could he sincerely worship the Child Jesus?” And the second was :—“Did he believe that the spiritual revelation of Christ was obtainable in other way than by the written and inspired words of the Bible?” Edwards answered the questions to the entire satisfaction of Harris, and he was restored to his place as an Exhorter.
Harris came at all times to Goetre. It is recorded that on 24th of January 1749, he came from Trevecca intending to proceed to Gloucester to meet George Whitefield. He reached Goetre at 3.0 a.m., having travelled all night. “I reached here at three in the morning” says he, “and rested in my clothes for two hours; it was necessary to go on to meet Mr. Whitefield at Gloucester, as the work of the Master called for haste and determination.”
On 31st of January, 1750, a Quarterly Association was held at the New Inn, where Howel Harris, Howell Davis and Daniel Rowland were in attendance. The Association was opened by sermon from Daniel Rowland, which in its doctrine did not please Harris. He seemed to think that Rowland had been caught by the influence of John Wesley in regard to “perfection.” Harris has placed upon record in his “Diaries” some critical comments upon the sermon, and it seems that the two men parted company on this occasion without coming to an agreement.
In the following June, Harris was again in the neighbourhood, and at New Inn, Morgan John Lewis and David Williams of Groeswen attack him great vigour, concerning some of his religious opinions. He, however, closed this visit at Goetre, and there writes in his “Diary” :—
“I learnt that a combined attack upon me concerning the doctrine of the Blood, was intended. I knew nothing of it until I came here (Goetre); then I saw it clearly”.
After the rupture on matters doctrine between Howel Harris and Daniel Rowland, it does not appear that the former visited Goetre again in a public capacity. This was the time when the New Inn Church on the advice of Daniel Rowland, ordained Morgan John Lewis to the full work of the ministry, and made themselves an Independent Church, and became of necessity lost to uses a Connexion. In later years says the Rev. J. Morgan Jones in th “Tadau Methodistaidd,” Morgan John lewis returned to the Methodist fold, and preached to our Communion until his death.
We have collated the above few visits to Goetre by Howel Harris out of a wealth of facts which we might have given our readers, if space permitted, to show that this little fold was greatly blessed in its early years by the visits of the pioneers of Calvinistic Methodism. But what is a great puzzle to us is, that there are no traditions in the neighbourhood, of the numerous visits of this great leader of Methodism, while his Diaries are full of them. Where did the Society hold its weekly meetings? How many of the farmsteads of this beautiful neighbourhood, were privileged to shelter this Man of God? There are none of their descendants here to-day to shed any light on these questions, and none of the old folk who live here that can give us any enlightenment. It would have added to the interest of our story, if we knew what houses were, at all times, open to the great reformer, for from the Diaries we learn conclusively that Goetre was to him a kind of City of Refuge, where he came for rest, succour, and consolation. But these sources of information are closed to us to-day, and we have to fall back upon old deeds, which give us the names of old leaders, who we feel sure succoured the fold in its early days, particularly those immediately following the inception of the cause.
Three homesteads figure largely in the story of the Cause for several generations, viz. :—the Tump Farm, in the parish of Bettws, the home of the Powells, Parcybrain, the home of the Jones’s and Tynmawr in the parish of Mamhilad. These were in an especial manner homes of Calvinistic Methodism until a quarter of a century ago. Then we have a fourth in Coedcae, on which the Chapel no stands. We shall refer to these in their turn later as we proceed with the story.
Although the Calvinistic Methodists did not separate from the Established Church until the first ordination in 1811, yet they erected many places of worship before that date in various parts of the country. In Monmouthshire there are Llanmartin, St. Mellons, Newport, Risca, Goetre, and perhaps one or two others in the north of the county. The Rev. David Jones, Llangan, was a great chapel-builder. It was he, through Miss Blanche Evans and Edward Coslett, that inspired the friends at St Mellons to correct their first chapel. Howel Harris too made himself responsible for the erection of Alpha Chapel, Builth, the first of our Chapels in Breconshire. He also pleaded for contributions towards its cost, in his various journeyings in all parts of the country. He, however, it is said, refused to accept the people’s offerings personally when he made his appeal, that the enemy should not have cause to say that they contributed out of respect for him, or under the influence of his eloquence, rather than in faith.
From 1768 to 1811 there was a pious vicar of Goetre named Hanbury Davies, whose father was an official of the Hanbury’s at the Pontypool Ironworks. The Reverend gentleman was greatly touched by the Methodist Revival, and showed great sympathy with its beneficent objects. He did what the saintly vicar of Llangan did, viz., encouraged his parishioners to build the first chapel at Goetre. In the chronicles of our earliest Associations he is often referred to as “Davies y Goetre,” and the late Rev. John Davies, Pandy, used to tell us that he left an endowment for the Cause. What has become of it we cannot, up to the present, find out. It is probable that the little flock had settled down to worship regularly in the large kitchen of the Coedcae homestead many years before the close of the century. Our earliest document pertaining to Goetre in the County Connexion Safe is a reference to a lease granted by Indenture on 8th November, 1788, by William Matthews of Coedcae, who had been in possession of the tenement of “two acres or thereabout” since the year 1743, under a lease of 1,000 years. On 25th of May, 1815, a new release was granted containing the original terms in the names of new Trustees. From this lease of 1815, we learned that the ground rent asked for was “a pepper-corn if demanded.”
The Trustees of the original 1788 lease were Joshua Davis, of the Parish of Goetre, Clerk (he was the Curate of the Parish and became later Vicar of Dingestowe, dying in 1820); John Perrott, of the Parish of Goetre, Yeoman; Richard Jones, of the Parish of Goetre, Farmer (this is Richard Jones of Parcybrain, whose initials R.J. may be seen on the old pulpit chair now at Goetre); William Jenkins of the Parish of Llanfair-cilgedyn, Labourer, and Oliver Jenkins. The Trustees of the 1815 lease were Richard Jones of Parcybrain, one of the original Trustees, the Rev. John Williams of Llanfair-ar-y-bryn, Carmarthenshire, Clerk (The son of the sweet hymns of Pantycelyn), Rev. Morgan Morgan of the Parish of Cwm Iau, Clerk (another of the Methodist clergyman), Rev. Evan Evans of the Parish of Llanwrtyd, Minister of the Gospel, Edward Coslett of the Parish of Marshfield, Minister of the Gospel, Henry Jones of the Parish of St. Mellons, Minister of the Gospel, Evan Williams of Goetre, Minister of the Gospel, George Reese of the Parish of Penhow, Esquire, William Watkins of the town of Brecon, Surveyor of Roads, and William James of the Parish of Talgarth, Breconshire, Cordwainer.
It will be observed that the choice of Trustees in the above document is not limited to the County or Monthly Meeting of which the Church was an integral part. There were reasons for this a century ago, but which we shall not pursue in this article. When thirty years later a new deed was prepared in the form of an Assignment, arising out of the demise of nearly all of the former Trustees, the choice was limited to the Monmouthshire Monthly Meeting. This Deed of Assignment is dated the 15th of April, 1845, transferring the property from Richard Jones, George Reese and William Watkins, the surviving Trustees, to the Revs. Morgan Howell, Tredegar, Rice Jones of Bishton, William Williams of Mynyddislwyn, Daniel Jenkins of Tredegar, all Ministers of the Gospel, Wm. Jeremiah of Goetre, Farmer, Daniel Lewis of Newport, Preacher of the Gospel, William Bowen of Pontypool, Preacher of the Gospel, Morgan Thomas of Mynyddislwyn, Agent (father of “Islwyn”), Evan Williams of Trevethin, shopkeeper, Philip John of Newport, Shopkeeper, and Edward Coslett of Castleton, Blacksmith (son of the old preacher of that name).
It is not necessary to proceed further with an inquiry concerning the old legal documents of the cause. Sufficient to record is the fact that the veterans of the 1845 deed have long years ago passed to their reward, after serving the Master with great faithfulness. Nearly three generations of leaders have served the Church and the work in the County since then, and each has his role of honour in our records as a Connexion in Gwent.
As before stated, for many years before the building of the Chapel, the services were held in the large old kitchen of Coedcae, which is now the Chapel house of the Cause. After the Chapel was built in 1807, upon special occasions when the sanctuary became overfull, a wooden partition between it and the house was removed, to enable the overflow to occupy the kitchen-space. Some of the older members tell us that as the service proceeded, the careful wife and mother of the household would busy herself stirring the fire, re-arranging the utensils thereon, in preparation for the mid-day or afternoon meal, following the morning or afternoon service. At present the division between the cottage and the Chapel is a permanent fixture, consisting of a four-and-a-half inch brick wall.
The first of our regular ministers to make Goetre is home was the Rev. Evan Williams. He was one of the Trustees in the 1815 deed, and was a native of Breconshire, being known there as of Cwm Iau. He spent many years at Goetre, and died in the year 1822. His remains were buried in the little graveyard of the Chapel.
Like many others of our small rural Churches in the first decades of the last century, Goetre Church was blessed with a fine company of stalwarts. They possessed great spiritual fervour and manifested great zeal and unfaltering faith in the work of the little sanctuary. They were too, men of substantial worldly means, and consecrated their wealth in a remarkable manner to the service of the Lord in His vineyard. The care of the Church at all times seem to be their first and supreme thought. Among these we have John Moses of Tynmawr, Richard Jones of Parcybrain, and John Powell of the Tump. The last place was at least four miles distant from Chapel Ed, but it is said of John Powell and his large family of children that they came that long distance to all the means of grace in all sorts of weather. The Tump stood on the opposite bank of the river Usk in the Parish of Bettws, and there was no bridge at that place to cross the stream. John Powell, however, had provided himself with a coracle, which was kept nestling in a cove on his own freehold land. He might have been seen leading his children to the water-edge, and he would lift two of the little ones into the coracle, and paddle them across to the opposite bank. He returned in this way three or four times until all his children had been brought across. They then proceeded to Goetre along a steep and lonely road. Their path has been made sacred to many generations of worshippers at Chapel Ed since those early years.
John Powell rendered a life-long service to the furtherance of the work at Goetre. He died in 1840 at the great age of 84 years. Many of the great leaders of the past found a hospitable roof at the Tump and when the cause was started at Mozerah, under Dr. William Rowlands of New York, it received every encouragement from John Powell and his godly wife who survived him many years.
The most remarkable of his family was his daughter Elizabeth, who received her education at one of the Ladies Seminaries at Oxford. After completing her education there she came home and opened a boarding school at Ivy House, Goetre, where many of the sons and daughters of the leading Calvinistic Methodists of the county as ministers and laymen were educated. When leaving Oxford for the last time, we are told by a relative of hers that she strung together the following rhyme :—
“Good-bye chairs, good-bye stools,
Good-bye to all Miss Bantam’s rules;
Good-bye Churches, good-bye steeples,
Good-bye to all the Oxford peoples.”
Perhaps the finest testimony of the spiritual character of the old leaders of Chapel Ed, we have seen, is in an appreciation of the Rev. Thos. Rees, Taff’s Well, but then of Pontypool, to Evan Williams of Pontnewynydd, the son of the Rev. Evan Williams of Goetre, referred to in preceding pages. Evan Williams was under the conviction of sin when a lad of sixteen, but he was so convinced in his own mind, that he was totally unworthy to be a member of the same communion as the God-fearing men that Chapel Ed was privileged to contain, that he made it in those young years a matter of earnest prayer. It is recorded that he went to his usual work on the farm in the early morning, and that when all alone under the shadow of a hedge a great fear and trembling seized him. He fell on his knees to ask God to make him pure and clean, to be worthy of the saints in the little communion. No light was vouchsafed him, so he continued the whole day wrestling with the unseen like Jacob of old. By the going down of the sun a fearful storm raged in his breast; the guilty sinner had shown himself in his soul, and he experienced as he had never done before the wickedness of his heart. Before many days had elapsed he was blessed with the healing rays of the Sun of Righteousness shining in his heart, and it became clear to him that his place was among the brethren.
The next trio of elders to hold a place of honour in the Church were William Jeremiah of Parcybrain, John Ballard, a retired collier who lived in the cottage near the gate to the graveyard, and Thomas Thomas of Tynmawr, who came here from Llantrisant, in Glamorgan, immediately after the death of John Powell. William Jeremiah was the veteran and when he died in 1865, had reached the great age of 88 years. These three were typical old Welsh elders with peculiar and interesting characteristics. They were elected deacons in 1864, when the English tongue had made great inroads into the district, and there was at times a great desire for English services. Thos. Thomas was far-seeing enough, as the leading deacon, to advocate an English service every Sunday in order to preserve the continuity of the Cause. For this, Lady Llanover facetiously called him “The Welshman” for her household attended the services regularly from “Y Llys.” On one occasion it is said the Rev. Thomas Edwards of Ebbw Vale, but then of Deri, was preaching at Chapel Ed, and the deacons had asked him “to give a little English.” The reverend gentleman proceeded with his sermon in the vernacular, making no signs of obliging the English folk of the congregation. Thos. Thomas quietly signified to him to oblige, but the preacher ignored the signs. Presently the old deacon from the corner of the altar seat in an audible whisper uttered “English, English!!” But the preacher proceeded in his usual strain quite composedly, and took no notice. Losing all patience the masterful deacon in a voice to be heard by all the audience said, “Preach English man, Preach English man!” causing not a little surprise. But the preacher in cool voice replied, “Fedra i ddim”—I cannot and proceeded to the close of his sermon as though nothing had happened.
It is not often that such interruptions occur during the delivery of a sermon, but the old fathers were nothing if they were not abrupt and sudden in their mode of expression, and oftentimes bordered upon forceful in their manner of expressing themselves. All honour to them, they were genuine and sincere in their service to the sanctuary.
There never was a kinder heart than Thomas Thomas. The ministers of a past generation had cause to think kindly of him. Saturday afternoon of every week saw him at Pontypool with his pony to escort the servant of the Lord to Tynmawr in readiness for the Sabbath duties, and as the Rev. Glanllywd Powell in The Treasury of 1882 says of him :—
“as a Deacon he fully corresponded with the description given by Paul in his Epistle to Timothy of what such an officer should be. He was stern and generous, honest and benevolent, a man of firm decision and great kindness. He was always ready with hand and heart and means to help the cause of Christ. His house for the last 30 years was open to the Ministers who frequented Chapel Ed and his hospitality was as hearty as it was beautiful.”
In 1861 the church invited David Hargest of Trevecca to become its first pastor. Mr Hargest brought with him his sister to keep house for him. She became the wife of Mr. John Wilks, the Ironfounder of Little Mill, who with his family is now the mainstay of the Cause, and his house at Penperlleni is always open to all those who serve the Lord, and “break the bread” to those who worship in this famous old sanctuary. Mr Hargest and his sister were direct descendants of one of the large family of Trevecca gathered together and cared for in a communal fashion by Howel Harris. Mr Hargest’s father was the cordwainer of that great family.
The Rev. David Hargest came to his duties at Chapel Ed full of the spirit of the Master, and did a great work among the humble folk who worshipped there. He was great in his missionary spirit among the navvy folk who were constructing the railways, and would use every means to bring them to the services. On one occasion it said of him that he entered the cottage of one of the navvy fellows with a large family, who was in no wise imbued with a desire to join with the humble folk in Divine worship. The wife gave him permission to take the children as a start. He at once took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and commenced to wash them, in order to take them clean to the Sunday School. That was only a beginning. His wholeheartedness fully won the sympathy of the parents, and they joined their children in frequenting the little sanctuary.
His love for children was unbounded, and their affection for him was beautifully reciprocated. They would crowd to him and encompass him like bees round a flower. He led their affections for serving the Lord in such a manner that has left his name as a sweet savour in the neighbourhood and as one of the most treasured memories in the story of the little Church. He remained here for seven years, and during the whole of the time, it is said that he read the lesson of scripture at the opening service but twice. One or other of the little ones invariably recited a portion of scripture at all the services during the whole time he was pastor. What a grand pattern he must have been, and how far removed we are at the present time from the great example bestowed upon us by this man of God in his cares for the young generation of his time. How true are the words of the Master, “Simon Peter, loves thou Me?” “Feed My lambs.” David Hargest loved his Saviour, and he testified to it by feeding his lambs.
He went from here to Pembrokeshire in 1868, and from thence in 1872 to America, settling down in Ohio, where he soon became one of the leading Calvinistic Methodists in the States. He was honoured with the honorary title of D.D., by one of the great American Universities. He spent 37 years in the great country across the Atlantic, and passed to his reward in 1909 at the age of 72 years.
During the Hargest pastorate the interior of the Chapel was reconstructed, and the floor was raised in terrace fashion from the altar seat to the rear of the building as we see it to-day.
There succeeded him as pastor in 1869, the genial medical preacher, the Rev. Evan T. Davies M.D. (Dryswg) of Cardiff, as he was known in his later years. He was from Ebbw Vale, and among the preachers of the county he was ranked as a bold and clear thinker. This was a great honour when the Monmouthshire pulpit contained such lights as Daniel Jenkins, Islwyn, and Dr. Cynddylan Jones, then of Pontypool. He, however, changed the course of his career at Goetre ?????? went in for the medical faculty, entering Glasgow University where he obtained his M.D. degree. But he preached ????????? pulpits to the end of his days.
Two years was his sojourn at Goetre, and in that time he did useful work. With the aid of Col. Bird of ????????? House, he established a British School in the neighbourhood under the Education Act of 1870. He was an ????????????? worthy of the best in the history of Calvinistic Methodism. He was as anxious to foster the spiritual instincts of his flock as the first exhorters of the Connexion were, and he has methodically recorded their spiritual progress in the old ?????? of the Church, as the following excerpts testify:—
“William Thomas .. .. A humble character.
Richard Williams .. .. Good signs of conversion.
Emily Evans .. .. Mild disposition, very promising.
John ans Maria Phillips .. Phillips has been a rough character
— now like a lamb.
Elizabeth Powell .. .. Hynod mewn duwioldeb.
Margaret Owen .. .. Loving the truth as it is
Jesus.”
Etc. Etc.
The last, Margaret Owen, was a daughter of the Rev. John Owen, Ty’nllwyn, the great North Wales preacher. She was private Secretary to Lady Llanover. There was another remarkable character a member of the Church. She was Miss Bridget Dafydd. To give her, her proper name, it was Bridget Cadwaladr, daughter of Dafydd Cadwaladr, Y ????????. She had a sister named Elizabeth, the Balaclava Nurse, whose memoir was written by Jane Williams, Ysgafell, in two volumes, and which, years ago, had a wide circulation. She changed her name to Elizabeth Davis, because of the “murdering” of Cadwaladr by English-speaking folk.
Bridget died at Llanover, and was buried in the little graveyard attached to Chapel Ed. her tombstone and grave are kept in spick span tidiness. The inscription reads as follows :—
“Er Cof am | Bridget Dafydd | merch Dafydd Cadwaladr e
