221376 Pte. William Owen British Army 5th Btn. Welsh Regiment from:Pontyprid, South Wales My grand father, William Owen, was in the Glamorgan Territorial Forces in WW1. He was also a poet. He wrote a very moving poem named Glamorgan Terriers which all his grand children have a copy of. It is too long for me to type on this page. It is a very descriptive poem of the regiment's struggle of digging trenches and training before going of to war.
