Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic History in Wales

4922 views

Description

Wales is a multicultural nation, with migration into Wales strongly linked to our industrial past. Up to the present day, people have come to Wales to work, to study, to seek asylum and to live. We all contribute to the culture and history of Wales. In this Collection we aim to bring together the stories of ethnic minority people and communities in Wales.

This resource is based on content currently published on People's Collection Wales.  We are working to engage with organisations, communities and individuals to create a broader and more diverse representation of the people of Wales. This resource will grow as more content becomes available.

Can you help? If you have content that will help tell the stories of ethnic minority individuals and communities in Wales (past and present) please add it to the People's Collection Wales. For help with uploading your content, see our How To Guides. If you know of published content that would enrich this resource, please leave a comment below or Contact us to help us to continue to expand this resource.

Explore the rich history of St. Mary's Church in Carew, Pembrokeshire, intertwined with the poignant memorials of brave servicemen who sacrificed their lives from World War I, World War II, and beyond. This article delves into the church's storied past before delving into these heartfelt tributes, including Captain Griffith Allen of the 98th Prince of Wales Regiment and his brother, Robert Thomas Allen who were involved in campaigns in the 18880’s. Their legacies, etched in the church's memorials, stand as enduring testaments to their courage and service, embodying the profound commitment of Carew's community to honor and remembrance.
