necaco llanberis

[Ieuan Roberts]

My father worked at necaco during the war his occupation as stated on my birth certificate Jan 1943
was transport  foreman aircraft factory his name was Idwal Roberts and lived in Deiniolen.
possibly he is the Roberts from Llanddeiniolen listed as one of the drivers on your list
Would it be possible to have a copy of the photo you mention taken at Caernarfon

I have a photo taken July 1943 of my late father and 16 other men, working for Necaco, Llanberis.
I know for certain that one of these men was my father's best friend from Groeslon, Will Griffith. Will was known as "Will Garth Bwlch" I'm not certain of the spelling!!!

I am not able to upload from my laptop at the moment, but if you p.m. me I will reply with the photo as an attachment, and then perhaps you can post it on here?

Hopefully your father Idwal will be in the photo Glenys has posted.


May I point out that the 'list' you refer to is not that of the drivers. It is a list of Glenys' research  subjects (family) and appears under all of her posts

Tried to put the photo which started this thread on here. Had an error message saying that it was too big.
If that is the one you want Ieuan, please pm me your email address and I will send it

  This topic has given me the name of the company that my late father worked for during the war.  He had lost his family home and business in Bootle - May blitz -  moved to live with family in Penygroes, worked as a driver for the above company, ferrying aeroplane parts to ..

I remember his best friend from that time of his life was Will Griffith from Groeslon, and Will's brother (name not known) - I do have a pic somewhere of a group of drivers.

If anyone has any info on these drivers I would love to know!
