The history of Astronomy in Wales: Introduction ... Wales today Welsh astronomers listed in Seryddiaeth a Seryddwyr Introduction Silas Evans listed 82 people in his list of Welsh astronomers in Chapter 24, Seryddiaeth yng Nghymru , of his book Seryddiaeth a Seryddwyr (published by William Lewis Ltd., Cardiff, 1923). There is, naturally, a strong emphasis on amateur astronomers of the time of the book, but the list covers the entire period from the 16th century. The list of Welsh astronomers is presented here. Information such as dates of birth/death and main places of residence are given alongside the names: sometimes this information is taken from Seryddiaeth a Seryddwyr , sometimes it is additional. Alphabetical order The list of names in alphabetical order is: Billups, Dr. Percy (1859-) Bruce, Ven. Archdeacon W. Conybeare (1844-1919) Bryan, Prof. G. H., F.R.S. (Univ. Coll.

Robert Recorde1510 - 1558 You can see one of Doctor Robert Recorde’s books in the museum in Tenby. Robert Recorde was born in Tenby in 1510 but not many people know much about him. His mother Rose was a daughter of Thomas Jones from Machynlleth and his father a Tudor Merchant in Tenby. Robert left Pembrokeshire when he was 15 for Oxford. He taught for a while before becoming a doctor to Edward 6th and Queen Mary. He was the perfect gentleman, a mathematician, qualified in medicine and Law. Robert Recorde was the first man to accept Copernicus’ ideas about the sun. Copernicus was from Poland, 1473 - 1543. He argued that the sun was the centre of the Solar system and that the earth and other planets rotated around the sun. Before Copernicus’ discovery everybody thought that the Earth stayed still and that all the other planets rotated around it. Copernicus was jailed for his discovery. Robert Recorde invented the = sign and also he was the first to discover the square root. He died in prison in London after being sent there for being in debt. Robert Recorde’s memorial can be found in St Mary’s Church in Tenby, one of Wales oldest churches.

39. The Invention Of The Equals Sign It was the invention of a Welshman named robert recorde, the man who firstintroduced algebra to England. recorde used the symbol, composed of two parallel http://www.ualr.edu/~lasmoller/equals.html

Did you know . . .? The symbol '=' was first used only in 1557! It was the invention of a Welshman named Robert Recorde, the man who first introduced algebra to England. Recorde used the symbol, composed of two parallel lines, in his 1557 book The Whetstone of Witte to avoid having to write over and over again "is equal to." But the symbol didn't catch on right away. Some people preferred the symbol ' ,' while others used the abbreviation ae or oe (for the Latin aequalis or "equal") into the 1700s. As for Recorde himself, he died a debtor in King's Bench Prison. Robert Recorde. (Source: http://www-history.mcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/PictDisplay/Recorde.html) In his own words: "To avoide the tediouse repetition of these woordes: is equalle to: I will settle as I doe often in woorke use, a paire of paralleles, or gemowe [twin] lines of one lengthe: =, bicause noe .2. thynges, can be moare equalle."
