Roberts from Gorlan Wen Upper Llandwrog
« on: Friday 14 March 14 15:37 GMT (UK) »
Following on from research on my Grand father Evan Roberts formerly from Bryn Y Foel  Y Fron ( formerly known as Cesarea) I have come across another relative of my grandfather a cousin Rowland (Rowlant) Owen who in 1938 reported the death of my grand father's oldest brother Robert John Roberts. Rowland's address then was 3 Emyri Terrace, Cesarea. On the 1911 census then aged 16 he is registered as residing as a boarder at Gorlan Wen, Upper Llandwrog. The other residents were John D Roberts, his wife Margaret, two sons Daniel J 14, John 6, and daughter Cathrian J 8.
If anybody has any information as to location of Gorian Wen or any info on anybody listed would be great fully accepted.

P.S. just checked BDM and I think Rowland passed away in1968 aged 73.this age would tie up with his age from the 1911 census

Hi,

There is an online tree with Rowland (Rowlant) recorded as the son of John Daniel Roberts (but not connected to Margaret)

On the obituary for John D Roberts (d. 22/3/1939) Rowland is listed as son (mab).

The tree also has a picture of Rowland's gravestone with his death shown as 1968 (no actual date) however the stone has his address as 3 Eryri Terrace, Y Fron, Cesarea, Caernarvonshire  :)

Hi John,
Re Rolant is that the one you sent yesterday. if yes, I've made a note of your info and will pursue.
If you have sent anything today other than the above then no I haven't received it yet.
The address I had for Asneth was a property called Pembroke House, in Penygroes.
I got this address from a letter sent to her from the military informing her of the death of William. W. Owen.
Once again thank you for what you have sent me.
Kind regards
Litherland Lass
Pauline.

Hi
Corlan/Gorlan Wen now a ruin. You turn left up a road just before the houses at far end of Fron. Enter sh51975537 on Streetmaps, and the place is shown but not named.  Named on 1890 1:10,560 OS map, which can be viewed on Oldmaps or Historicalgeography websites.
