Having looked on the 1939 register on Ancestry, I noticed that 2 Tanyfron Terrace bad the name 2 Bryn Tegai.
Living at 2 Bryn Tegai on the 1939 register is a Hugh Roberts born 17th Dec 1884, Unemployed and Married. Also- Jane M Roberts born 13th Aug 1887, Unpaid domestic, Married. Also- Thomas Roberts born 1st April 1927, at school.
Could this ‘Jane M Roberts’ be the sibling’s of your William Roberts?

If you could send the last info you have on the family, I will have a go on this end for you.
I live in Blaenau myself and have done for most of my life. My grandfather lived at number 5 as a young child in the 1930’s. I am in contact with a few people who grew up in this street as far back as 1940, they remember the street & residents well.
Have you tried searching the chapel records of ‘Capel Seion’?

And finally, having spoken to former residents of both Tanyfron and New Street on Closygraig road, many who have made reference to a family of memorable names living at 2 Tanyfron Terrace on Closygraig road.
Living at number 2 was a local man known by all as ‘Wil Tatws’ (Blaenau Ffestiniog is known for its nicknames).
Apparently Wil Tatws was a jolly guy and was well known within the community. There are story’s of him always driving his truck/wagon around town whilst standing-up. Due to his standing whilst driving, he later became to crash his truck and was injured in the process, this injury left him deaf.

Also at number 2 lived ‘Jini Tatws’, and although I haven’t yet been told of her relationship to Will, I am wandering could she be your Jane?.

Shortly after the death of Wil Tatws, Jini and the rest of the family moved in to the house next door, to number 3 Tanyfron Terrace where they remained until the row was demolished

Tanyfron terrace is no longer standing today. If you where to google ‘Llanddwyn Flats’ in Blaenau Ffestiniog you would see the very spot where Tanyfron once stood.
Tanyfron terrace consisted of  8 small terrace houses. Running along side Tanyfron was a further row of houses, they named this row ‘New Street (1-10 New street) and this entire row has since been demolished.
Now I’ve been told by people who once lived in both Tanyfron and New street that it was the actual ‘Road’ they remember as ‘Closygraig’.
This whole street/road/8 terrace houses stood behind ‘Lord Street’, Lord Street still stands today
