1881 Census (RG11  5584  42  5)

1 Pistill Du, Jane Roberts, Head, Unm, 73, formerly domestic servant, born Caerhun
" Pistill Du, Robert Roberts, Brother, Unm, 65, Agri Labourer, born Caerhun
2 Pistill Du, Jane Owens, Head, Widow, 72, No occupation, born Caerhun
3 Pistill Du, David Roberts, Head, 79, Annuitant, born Llanrwst, Denbighshire

On the 1911 Census, John Roberts' PoB is transcribed as "Llansant". The original entry has been crossed out (Caernarvonshire Caerhun) and replaced with "LLan____ ?" - which could well read Llanrwst if you wanted to. Unfortunately, the County was not included.

Talycefn Rso is probably Talycafn "Railway Sub Office" which refers to a post office able to exchange mail directly with the Travelling Post Offices on the railway without the mail having to go to the nearest postal town first.

Thanks for that. It makes sense as I’ve seen it elsewhere too
