Answer book
Welsh Folk Museum Answer Book, 1958, containing notes written in Welsh by Evan Roberts from Llandderfel, Meirionethshire (1877-1977) on peate cutting and weather patterns. Also included are notes copied from the parish vestry record book, dating to the end of the 1800s. Answer Books were sent out by the Welsh Folk Museum in 1958 to individuals across Wales as a way of collecting and documenting information on aspects of folk culture in their areas, including agriculture, crafts, food, customs and dialects. The responses were hand-written in the books. The Answer Books had a similar purpose to the earlier questionnaires sent out in 1937.
