List of Sheriffs of Meirionnydd in the 19th century

This is a list of holders of the title of Sheriff of Meirionnydd between 1800 and 1899.

Contents

A Sheriff is the legal representative of the monarch, and is appointed annually for each county in Wales and England. Their duty is to keep the peace in the county, and to ensure the country follows the law of the monarch. Originally, the job was a position of status and strength, but today it is principally a ceremonial role.
