Hello, If anyone is researching the family of John EDWARDES, they might be interested in the following item: (please ignore if this is common knowledge) 'In the Middle of the 19th century, a sportsman, from Pembrokeshire, in Wales, set out to develop his idea of a perfect terrier. One that performed equally well as a hunt terrier with a pack of otterhounds, but could also act as a vermin hunter and was small enough to slip down a badger hole. Hunting badgers has long been banned, but there was a time when they were considered as vermina dn rughlessly destroyed by 19th century farmers. The name Sealyham, is after the family estate in Wales of the breeds originator John Edwardes. His selection criteria for his breed was hard, and weeded out those he considered not fit for their role as a working terrier. The result was a strong and pure bloodline that continues until the present. from: www.irishfieldsports.com/sealyham Jenny Australia
