Lhuyd, Edward (1660–1709). Scholar. After attending Oswestry Grammar School and Jesus College, Oxford, Lhuyd became under-keeper, and in 1690 keeper, of the newly opened Ashmolean Museum at Oxford. At first his interest was mainly in fossils. But in 1695 he helped Edmund
Gibson with the revised edition of Camden's
Britannia, contributing ‘the whole business of Wales’. A student of Celtic civilization, he learned Cornish and visited Brittany, and in 1707 published by subscription the first volume of a study of the Celtic language. No second volume was called for. His notes on Celtic antiquity were dispersed at his death, though the Irish portions found their way to Trinity College, Dublin.
