The surviving will of William Gefferey (1503), a successful haberdasher with roots in the lordship of Gower, casts rare light on the world of a well-travelled merchant who established himself in the Barnstaple area of north Devon and in the city of London, while remaining conscious of his south Wales heriage to his dying day. It reflects his social attitudes and charitable instincts, while his gifts of printed books to churches in Swansea and north Devon suggest a cultivated person. He is to be numbered among the Welsh diaspora that gathered momentum in post-conquest Wales.
