FR Station Masters
This list of FR Station Masters is not complete or guaranteed to be fully correct. Names which are followed by a question mark are names of Station Masters who are known but their location is only a guess. Most of this information comes from census records 1871- 1911.
In 1865 & 1867 Thomas Lloyd Prichard was Chief Station Master.
In the early part of the 20th century it appears that J.P. Roberts acted as a "fill in" Station Master and did other jobs such as a clerk at Boston Lodge.
Other Station Masters in 1867 were Griffith Jones, Robert Richards and R. P. Williams but it is not known to which stations they were allocated.
It would appear that Dduallt was a very umpopular location with a rapid turn-over of staff.
It is not thought that the GWR platform had its own Station Master
NOTE: * Henry Thomas and Henry Thomas Cooke appear to be one & the same person (from census); no explanation as yet.
