Agree with Tanybryn and next word could be farmer

Yes, Tanybryn and Farmer.

Which Tanybryn was it as there are a number of places in Caernarfonshire by that name?

If this is off a census entry, could you look at nearest neighbours and then refer to a map?

Hi
Clearly a baptism record.

Hi

Yes it is a baptism record.

@ Jo
I was hoping it was somewhere around Llanllyfni, Caernarvonshire, Wales
as later census records indicate that was where David came from.
