Rees Hopkin Rhys (19 March 1819 – 1899) was an industrialist, landowner and prominent local government figure in the Aberdare area for much of the nineteenth century.[1]
Rhys was born in Llwydcoed and from an early age showed an interest in public affairs.[2] In 1847, he lost his sight after an accident at Dowlais works where he was conducting experiments with "gun cotton".[2]
