Day Schools in Caernarfonshire in 1847
This Caernarfonshire database consists of
day schools which existed in 1847 included here within an alphabetical list of parishes
It contains the names and types of day schools listed in the
Reports of the Commissioners of Inquiry into the State of Education in Wales published in 1847, the infamous Blue Books.
These
complete Reports can be viewed in detail on the National Library of Wales site where, in the Appendices, extensive data on individual schools is shown
; there is a separate table for
Sunday Schools - and also separate parish based reports under
Minutes of Evidence which are well worth investigating
The Caernarfonshire section of the
Tabular Report of Day Schools in the Appendices starts on page 178 and ends on page 192
(entries take up 4 pages).
If a
parish isn't listed below then it has
