Hello Mrs C......
re Cambrian Mill - Enoch was my G-Grandmothers brother. I have him on all the census 1841-1901 if you do not have them I will be happy to provide, also many BMD certs for the family who seem to wandered to many parts of Wales after leaving Llangollen and eventually settling in Llanwrtyd.
I too was unable to find the graves - probably amongst those whose headstones have fallen over.
I was not aware that Hartley had married until I recently obtained his obituary and I have ordered the marriage cert.  I am interested to learn if you know anything about his brother Llewellyn and Ernest after they went to America.

Hello Jan
Thanks for getting in touch. You are the first ever on this branch of my family!  I am Welsh by birth but in Australia many years. I get back to Wales quite often - it was on my visit to The National Library in Aberystwyth in October that I obtained the newspaper obits for Enoch, Rebecca and Hartley from which I gleaned some info previously unknown to me.
My G-Grandmother was Mary Roberts born 10 Nov 1843 Pontfadog (then in Llangollen Parish).  She is on the 1871 Llangollen Census as Young and thereafter Lloyd. 
As we do not know precisely what info each other possesses I thought perhaps I could send you my spreadsheet for the Roberts family which starts with John Roberts and Elizabeth Hughes and their nine known children including Enoch and Mary.  Shall I do this ?  If so I shall have to figure out how to do it via Rootschat which I only joined this week and am not yet familiar with it's rules.
Stan.
