Presents the history of the little known Welsh immigrant communities in the American Midwestern state of Iowa. This book identifies what made the Welsh unique as immigrants to North America, and as migrants and settlers in a land built on such groups.
The Welsh in Iowa is a history of the little-known Welsh immigrant communities that dot the Iowa countryside. Identifying the qualities that made the Welsh unique as immigrants, migrants, and settlers to North America, Cherilyn Walley analyzes documentary evidence, as well as community and oral histories, in order to examine Welsh culture as it was expressed in middle America by the farmers and coal miners who passed through the prairie state as it grew to maturity in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
