Thomas Davies (bishop)
Thomas Davies (1511?–1573) was a Welsh clergyman, Bishop of St Asaph from 1561 to 1573. Early life Davies was born about 1511, either at his father's house at Caerhun, in the parish of Llanbedr-y-Cennin, between Conwy and Llanrwst in Carnarvonshire, or, as some say, in Conwy town. His father, reputed to be a descendant of Sir Gruffudd Llwyd, was a country gentleman; his brothers filled posts as sheriff, coroner, and escheator of Carnarvonshire. In 1535 the rectory of Llanbedr, together with the vicarage of Caerhun, was conferred on Davies, who must have been resident for the next few years at Cambridge.

In 1546 he appears as holding the office of Chancellor of Bangor Cathedral, and in 1552 Arthur Bulkeley, Bishop of Bangor, left him some books in his will. He held various other livings, includi ...
