Sir Edwin Chadwick gained fame as a supporter of the poor and a champion of environmental sanitation. He was a firm believer that epidemics were generated by dirt and that basic sanitation would control disease. In 1848 he became Sanitary Commissioner for London. The country certainly benefited from his work and as a result he has been called the 'father of sanitation'

There have been so many migrants to England over the centuries that many people named Davis and Davies that although people in England anad Wales usually assume Davis and Davies are Welsh, having that name is not a guarantee that your father's father's father's father's father's father's father (if you catch my meaning) came from Wales.
