Thanks cms - I did wonder about this but wasn't sure who exactly I should contact. Shall mail them some photos in the morning. :)

That's a good idea pastmagic , I shall do that at the weekend. There is a definate feeling of "this should be available to people who want it!" as I know that there are people who are looking into the lives of those very people right now.

Oh my! Thank you so much! I know that face so well- It is Cledwyn, standing behind the row of houses he was brought up in with his sisters- Idris Villas, Tywyn.

I've just tried to post a photo of George on here, but it said that the file was too large... Not sure what I can do about that...

I'm only seeing your post now *Precipice*. We have a lot of photos of the Arthurs too, but if you happen to have some, I'd love it if you could email me with them... My grandfather loved that family so much and I'm sure he's love to see any photos.

We have a wonderful photo of George Henry Arthur on the wall... He's so distinguished and earnest. My twenty-month son points to it and says "George!"  ;D

Possibly with the rector of Pennal church? He has a few records, I think.
I live in Pennal... Do you know where he lived?

Ooooh Ann in the UK, that is shocking! I'm very lucky with family bibles etc... They've all been kept in good condition.

I don't really deserve the "well done"- I was thinking of my stomach when I saw the recipes in the back! But I am really pleased I have it now, I only hope I can think of a way to make it useful for someone...

I have found some wonderful things in this particular car boot sale- A few months ago I found a handwritten beautiful birthday book from 1876, with lots of family birth and death dates in it. I know it'll be a treasure to someone, it's just a matter of finding that person!

Meanwhile, I am the guardian of other people's treasures  :)
