Richard's date of birth is often given as 1907.

Wasn't this also the name of the guy who kind of hosted The People's Court (with Judge Wapner) way back when?

Irvine22 appears to be on a campaign to make Welsh people born in England English, rather like a previous campaign on Irish people born in England. In this case it is inappropriate to categorise the author as English of Welsh descent. The fact that he claimed to have been born of Wales is a clue, aside from the undisputed fact that his parents were Welsh. A quick internet search shows this and there are others. The category should be removed. And not for the first time, Irvine22 you are in breach of WP:BRD I suggest you self revert. -- Snowded TALK 23:31, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
(out) BTW it's rather apt that the ersatz-Welsh film How Green Was My Valley (film) should have been based on a book by an ersatz-Welshman! Irvine22 ( talk) 15:28, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
I have amended the categories - why would he be in the category Eilat? I have amended him to show Welsh novelist. The BBC note him as Welsh, as does Britannica - here. Daicaregos ( talk) 09:07, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
(out) Unfortunately the link you provided perpetuates the falsehood that he was born in Wales. When people have been deceptive about their birthplaces (or birthdates for that matter) those inaccuracies do tend to be uncritically regurgitated - even by Britannica. We must be rigorous in extirpating them from Wikipedia. Irvine22 ( talk) 08:06, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
The University of Texas gives his father's name as William Llewellyn Lloyd and a number of less reliable sources give his mother's name as Sarah Anne. If this is correct, there is a record of a marriage between a William Llewellyn Lloyd and a Sarah Anne Thomas, indexed at 1903 Apr-Jun Paddington Greater London, London, Middlesex Volume 1a Page 97, which fits with Richard Llewellyn's place and date of birth. Of interest is the fact that the marriage is indexed under both Lloyd and Llewellyn-Lloyd (William has two entries on the same page of the register). AJRG ( talk) 12:23, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
Richard Llewellyn used several different names. Archives Wales gives Lloyd, Richard Herbert Vivian, Lloyd, Richard David Vivian Llewellyn, Llewellyn Lloyd, Richard David Vivian and Llewellyn Lloyd, Richard Dafydd Vivian. To add confusion, the original copyright for How Green Was My Valley is in the name of Richard Vivian Llewellyn Lloyd. AJRG ( talk) 16:39, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
If anyone has access to Gale's Contemporary Authors (reference books or online), they apparently have a biography of Richard Llewellyn... AJRG ( talk) 19:04, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
