{{Use British English|date=March 2017}}{{Use dmy dates|date=November 2012}}William Ambrose (1 August 1813 – 31 October 1873), whose bardic name was Emrys, was a 19th-century Welsh–language poet and minister of religion.[1]

Ordination

Ambrose was born at Bangor, Caernarfonshire (Gwynedd), north Wales, the son of a leading member of the local Baptist community, but he was later apprenticed to a draper in Liverpool, and subsequently moved to London.[2] However, having gone on a preaching tour led by William Williams (Caledfryn), he decided, instead of setting up in business, to become a minister, and was ordained on 7 December 1837. He remained the minister of the Independent chapel at Porthmadog until his death, aged 60.

Writing

"Emrys" edited the periodical Y Dysgedydd from 1853 to 1873, and narrowly missed being appointed to the bardic chair at the Aberffraw Eisteddfod of 1849.
