‘Nova Cambria’: Thomas Benbow Phillips and the Welsh settlement in Brazil

A small selection of original items belonging to Thomas Benbow Phillips (1829 - 1915) pioneer of the Welsh colony in Brazil that were digitized in Esquel, Chubut during People's Collection Wales trip to Patagonia, sponsored by the British Council in September 2015.

Thanks to Silvia Elvina Williams, a descendant Phillips for the permission to digitize and share these important materials.

There will be many more items and collections to come on People's Collection!
