Hugh Bold (1731-1809) was a Welsh lawyer and was active in the affairs of his borough. His background was humble and he took a post as clerk at the Brecon office of John Philipps, of Tre-gaer near Llanfrynach. Bold later married Philipps' daughter and eventually took over the business. He acted as attorney for several iron-works including the Cyfarthfa works. He was a well known and respected member of the Methodists, John Wesley wrote of him: ‘I know no attorney to be depended on like him’. Shortly after the death of his first wife in 1781, he married Dorothy, also a daughter of his previous employer, John Philipps. Bold died in February 1809.[1] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Hugh Bold|url=https://biography.wales/article/s-BOLD-HUG-1731|website=Dictionary of Welsh Biography|publisher=National Library of Wales|accessdate=5 July 2016}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Bold, Hugh}}{{Wales-bio-stub}} 5 : Welsh lawyers|1731 births|1809 deaths|19th-century Welsh lawyers|18th-century Welsh lawyers |
