In 1873 the name of Henry Blackwell appears in the Liverpool directory as a bookbinder. He went to New York in 1877 where he supervised a large bindery. Blackwell played a prominent part in the Welsh-American life of his adopted country. He was a life-member of the S. Davids Society of the State of New York , a life-member of the Virginia Historical Society , one of the founders of the Ex-Libris Society, Washington , a vice-president and governor of the American Society, 1912 , a member of the Welsh Society of Philadelphia , and a member of a committee formed in 1890 to found a chair of Celtic at Marietta College . He was secretary of the eisteddfod held in New York in Feb. 1886 ; at this eisteddfod he won the prize for a bibliography of Welsh books and Welsh authors in America . He was also secretary of the New York eisteddfod of 1888 . In Britain he was a member of the Hon. Society of Cymmrodorion and of the Welsh Bibliographical Society . He visited Wales in 1911 for the national eisteddfod held at Carmarthen . Blackwell 's printed literary and bibliographical work appears mainly in journals. In Jan. 1914 he began to publish Cambrian Gleanings: a monthly Magazine , edited by himself at University Place and Tenth Street , New York . This survived only until the Sept. number. The May issue has a list of ¿ Printers of books in Welsh in the United States .¿ He had previously contributed to such British and American newspapers and journals as Oswestry Advertizer , Jan. 1890 (¿ Catalogues of Welsh MSS. ¿), and Aug. 1891 (¿ A Collection of Welsh Travels ¿) (both were afterwards reprinted in Bye-Gones ), Red Dragon, Old Welsh Chips, 1888 (¿ Bibliography of local and county Histories relating to Wales and Monmouth ¿, and ¿ List of Bibles and Testaments in the Welsh Language published in the United States ¿), Y Drych , The Druid , The Cambrian , 1882 , and 1884 (a catalogue of his library of books in the English language relating to Wales and the Welsh ), and Old Brecknock Chips , 1886 (¿ Brecknockshire authors and books printed in Brecknockshire ¿). He had proposed to issue in 1886 an America n edition of Jane Williams : A History of Wales ¿( London , 1869 ); another appeal for subscribers appeared in 1889 . Blackwell 's bibliography, when it was awarded the prize at the 1886 New York eisteddfod , contained 469 titles. Writing twenty-three years later the compiler said: ¿I have in manuscript a list of over one thousand titles on the same topic.¿ This manuscript ( N.L.W. MS. 9278 ) (including items added from time to time) was published by the National Library of Wales in 1942 under the title A Bibliography of Welsh Americana. The greater part of Blackwell 's bibliographical and biographical work is, however, unpublished. The following manuscripts are in the National Library of Wales: A Dictionary of Welsh Biography (27 v); and Cambrian National Bibliography (5 vol).…
