The Rev '''Francis Kilvert''' (1840-1879) was a [[Church of England]] priest remembered for his diaries, an evocative record of mid-Victorian rural society in [[England]] and [[Wales]] and a sensitive portrayal of his own spiritual and emotional yearnings. From 1865 to 1872 he was curate at Clro, [[Radnorshire]] (in the modern Welsh county of [[Powys]]); he subsequently served as curate at Langley Burrell (near [[Chippenham]] in [[Wiltshire]], again at Clyro, and as vicar at St Harmon in Powys, before becoming vicar of Bredwardine, [[Herefordshire]]. he died on 23 September 1879, just a month after his marriage. His wife destroyed most of his diaries (embarrassed, perhaps, by the mild expressions of desire for other women that are present in the surviving portions); a selection from the remainder was first published in 1938. Fuller editions have been published subsequently.
