Foster: son of David of Rhyader, Radnor, pleb., (draper); PEMBROKE, matric. 23 Feb. 1770 aged 16; BA 1774; MA 1776; author of 'History of the Co. of Radnor'; died 24 Aug. 1821 [**incorrect]; brother of John (1786)(CCEd ID 174653) and of Henry (1774)(CCEd ID 174637)
** Dictionary of Welsh Biography (wba.llgc.org.uk - accessed 8 Nov. 2017) believes Foster confused him with a John Williams who died on that date, see G. Mag. entry; another G. Mag. entry gives date of death 18 Aug. 1829 which ties up with church records and notes that the deceased was about 76 and master of Leominister School and curate of Eyton
