Baner Cymru Mar 4 1857

The Baner ac Amserau Cymru (established in 1857) was a weekly Welsh language newspaper, distributed throughout Wales and in the Liverpool area. It contained local and national news and information. It was formed by the amalgamation of Baner Cymru ("The Banner of Wales"), which had been founded in 1857 by Thomas Gee, and Yr Amserau ("The Times") in 1859.[1] Bookseller and writer Ellis Pierce wrote for the Baner.[2]

Welsh Newspapers Online has digitised many of the early issues of Baner ac Amserau Cymru from the National Library of Wales' newspaper collection.

Associated title: Yr Amserau (est. 1846).
