Trying to find info on William Ceinfryn Thomas, Dowlais

[lumina]

Hello. I'm trying to find out (anything really) about my great grandfather William Ceinfryn Thomas. I know he was born in 1853 in Penrhiwgoch and was the minister at the Hebron chapel during the Welsh Revival. My grandmother Winifred Mary was born in 1882 and married David Grier Jenkins of Merthyr. I'm looking for whatever I can find on William Ceinfryn - I think the Ceinfryn might have been added on later. I don't know why. I did visit the Hebron Chapel, and they were really helpful and showed me a photo of him. I wonder if anyone here has any suggestions where I might find out more. Thank you in advance for your help.
