Pigion, o, Hymnau, &c

Welsh Collection

See Early American Imprints (Shaw & Showmaker) No. 15949 

Provenance: Library copy owned by Richard Francis

Not microfilmed for UC collection

Utica Public Library copy was used for the (inferior) digitized version available by subscription in Early American Imprints, Series II via ReadexShaw & Shoemaker record it as No. 15949. 

From a copy at Princeton Theological Seminary.

A collection of Welsh hymns (without music), Pigion o Hymnau (Utica, 1808) is notable as the first Welsh book printed in New York State and one of the earliest titles in the U.S. 

The UC Library copy, very scarce, in contemporary calf, is extremely fragile but appears to be complete in 12º. Other libraries with this title: Syracuse, Cornell, Princeton Theological Seminary (supplying the copy for Internet Archive), and Utica Public (an imperfect copy for the Shaw & Shoemaker bibliography). National Library of Wales has copies. The Oneida Historical Society may also have one (not confirmed). Princeton credits to Francis Adrian Van der Kemp (1752-1829) for collecting the hymns for publication, whereas OCLC records do so for a Mary Davis (identity uncertain).

Pigion o Hymnau was published by Ira Merrell, a well known printer in the area. He emigrated from Wales in 1798. See Google Books. This was possibly his only publication in Welsh.

The sole signature in the UC copy is by a Richard Francis who can be identified as Richard Francis who emigrated from Wales in 1797 (The Cambrian, v.17, Jan. 1897); see p. 344 in a Google Books version. It is unclear why the UC copy was not part of the microfilming project (1989-90); it may have been a later acquisition.

Note: Microfilm/electronic records for Pigion o Hymnau in OCLC have a title transcription error, Hymnan is given instead of the correct Hymnau
