Howell Thomas Evans (1877-1950) was a historian and schoolmaster. He was born at Swansea, Glamorganshire in 1877, the second son of John Evans, a steel worker, and his wife Mary. He attended Swansea Grammar School, the University College of Wales, Aberystwyth, and St John's College, Cambridge. He held teaching posts in Carmarthen and Cardiff before becoming headmaster of the County School, Aberaeron, Cardiganshire, from 1917 until his retirement in 1944. He was President of the Welsh Secondary Schools Association, 1940, and vociferously pursued his ideas regarding education. He produced a number of history textbooks, including The Making of Modern Wales (1912), Wales and the Wars of the Roses (1915) and The Age of Expansion (1933). He also broadcast on BBC Radio. In 1904 he married Gwenllian Howells, of Briton Ferry, Glamorgan. He died at Aberaeron on 30 April 1950 and was buried at Cardiff. He had four sons, including Lyn, who published a biography of his father, Portrait of a Pioneer, in 1982.
