Looking for a black sheep in Penmachno?

www.lhywelroberts.northwalesblogs.co.uk contains interesting and helpful information to do with Family and Local History.



Hywel Roberts found helpful historical documents among his father's effects.



The Gwynedd Family History Society (Canolfan yr Aelwyd, Stryd yr Eglwys, Caernarfon, LL55 1SW) have published the transcriptions of memorial inscriptions on cemetery gravestones, along with a plan of the gravesites in St Tudclud's churchyard, and they also publish a journal, Gwreiddiau Gwynedd (Gwynedd Roots).


Hywel Roberts mentions this road junction in his blog.

Owen Gethin Jones, Ei Fywyd a'i Feiau is another book worth tracking down.



Owen Gethin Jones (1816-83) was a poet and local historian who wrote three essays in "Gweithiau Gethin", about Penmachno, Dolwyddelan and Ysbyty Ifan.



In partnership with his brother in law, William Jones, and nephew Owen Jones, Gethin was a building and civil engineering contractor.



Pont Gethin, a viaduct taking the railway across the Lledr Valley, is one of his contracts.

Below are some notes of Penmachno residents from old records.



The list was compiled many years ago, and no further details are available from the source.



The list is not comprehensive and concentrates on specific former Penmachno residents.
If you are looking for further information,we recommend consulting members of the Clwyd and Caernarfon Rootsweb lists and other websites specialising in family history.

I'm sending my photo taken in Bangor the day of the Sasiwn (association, meeting). The preaching was marvellous Lewis, it turned into rejoicing with John Williams BS in the afternoon.

Above: Kate of Hightown / Maes Gwyn, Wrexham, thought to have been a cousin of Catherine Ellen Andrew. Kate, whose married name may have been Evans, raised Charles, Louie (seen on the wedding photo of William Andrew and Catherine Ellen) and Frank by adoption. Charles became a sailor. Louie married Francis, a soldier; she died of cancer aged about 40. Kate was so hard on Frank as a child that he would cry if he got dirt on his clothes, because she would punish him. The other children were so sorry for him that they hid from him when they were playing, because they knew that if he got his clothes dirty, as he inevitably would, Frank would be in trouble. Kate used to shake him. Once, when he got his socks dirty, the children tried to wash the dirt off, but only made it worse, which was worse for Frank. He was so thin that one of the cousins used to call him "scarecrow". In time Frank Evans worked for a newspaper in Wrexham, and worked his way up. Last time he was heard of was via a friendly note included in a delivery of books from Cardiff to the Nant y Rhiw chapel.
