Tyn y Cae, Rhoscolyn, Anglesey

Hi, can anybody help with the location of this property please.  It’s where my ancestors lived in 1841, 1861 census.  Thanks

I have looked at online maps
https://maps.nls.uk/view/135190825 (from 1924).
https://maps.nls.uk/view/101604202 and https://maps.nls.uk/view/101604025 (from 1888).

I've not spotted it, but I might have missed it. Many of the houses are named, although a few are not. Can you see the names of the houses listed on the Census entries (both before, and after their names)? You might be able to find the neighbouring houses on the maps, which might help you locate Tyn y Cae.

Although, they might not have literally had neighbouring houses. The name "Tyn y Cae" means "The house in the field", but finding nearby properties would help.

Thanks for your reply Trystan.  I did come across that OS map and couldn't see it anywhere, I reckon it's no longer standing or is an old ruin in a field....many are around there, I have land in the area and never come across it.

Incidentally, they could easily drop the "y" so it could be Tyn Cae. I couldn't find that either.

Yes, so looking at the census will be the way to go then now. :)

The Historic Welsh placenames list records a field called Tyn y Cau in Rhoscolyn - too much of a coincidence? Very near the green marker is a small enclosure which could be a house site?

Thank you, yes I came across that one.  I’ll go exploring one day and see if I can find it, I imagine it might just be that little ruin that maybe once was a dwelling, there’s a few around there.

1841 and 1851 at Tyn y Cae, Rhoscolyn lived William Edwards and his wife Catherine
Are these your ancestors ?
