Other Bits 'n 'Bobs
On April 10th in 1749, hymn writer and evangelist Charles Wesley married Sarah Gwynne of Garth at Llanlleonfel Church.
Sarah Gwynne, the daughter of a magistrate was 23 and Charles 40. The ceremony was performed by John Wesley, Charles' brother and afterwards the wedding party walked for half a mile across the fields to Garth House. It was reputedly in Garth House that Charles Wesley penned the words for the hymn 'Jesu Lover of my Soul' during a thunderstorm, as he watched a sparrow shelter from the weather on the window sill.
