Daniel Rowlands (1713 – October 16, 1790), was one of the foremost leaders of the Welsh Methodist revival along with William Williams and Howell Harris. For most of his life he served as curate in the parishes of Nantcwnlle and Llangeitho, Ceredigion. His name is usually associated with that of Llangeitho. He was renowned as preacher and he turned Llangeitho into a centre for Calvinistic Methodism in Wales.
Because his preaching caused turmoil, specifically the Welsh Methodist revival, the Anglican Church authorities threw him out. Following this, he established a Methodist cause in Llangeitho.
His early preaching was known to be frightening as he gave much attention to God's judgment in his sermons. But as he matured in his ministry he gave more emphasis on the saving work of Jesus on the cross. His theology and character was seen as more consistent and stable than that of his counterpart Howel Harris during the revival.
One of his great-grandchildren was the novelist Anne Adalisa Puddicombe (Allen Raine).
