Capel Llwyneinion, Llanfor, Bala.
« on: Thursday 01 July 10 22:02 BST (UK) »
Does anybody know anything about this vry early Methodist chapel that closed in 1967? I'm trying to trace ancestors who are not in the Llanfor nor Llanycil Parish registers when born in 1808&1818 and were almost certainly baptised at the above chapel near Rhosygwalia near Bala. The National Library has no records in their Non -parochial registers. It would be handy if anyone knows whether a cemetery exists now?

I have a picture of this chapel - we were there last week-end if you can pm me your email I will send it over............well I am assuming its the same chapel - its really lovely.  My Rhosygwalia ancestors are a lot later than yours but like you I would like to know more about the chapel - they are buried in the church but knowing the family I cannot believe that they weren;t non-conformist.

If its the chapel I think it is there is no cemetery around it.

I'm very grateful to you Nesta. My e-mail address is (*).
I looked up the OS maps at the National Library today & found the Chapel House at Llwyneinion & if there's a cemetery there, a road trip is needed!
Are your ancestors buried in Llanfor church?
Very many thanks, a chink of light maybe!!

If you google Capel Llwyneinion - they have loads of stuff in Dolgellau Archive - maybe a bit later than you're interested in.  Try these people to which have something to do with chapel communities in Wales.
