Gwaun-y=gwiail farm
« on: Saturday 23 June 18 12:50 BST (UK) »
Trying to find Gwaun-y-gwiail farm in 1851 and 1861 census. Located in 1841 census - with inhabitants William Williams, farmer, aged 80, widowed Mary Roberts (73) and William Roberts (10) and Daniel Roberts (8) - not a clue to who children are - but Gwaun-y-gwiail, and young Robertses seem to have disappeared from censuses after that.
Roberts, Caernarfon. Thomas, Caernarfon. Kite, Kent.

Can you give a link?
I can't find the 1841 on familysearch.

Certainly no 8-y-old Daniel roberts indexed for the county given

I misread initial post (watching footy at same time). Realised location of farm wasn't the issue - hence didn't pursue location of farm on old maps (tho' it's on the adjacent old map).
