Hi, Appreciate if anyone can understand this address for John Rogers from two references in an 1845 Will by his father Andrew Rogers of Oswestry

The top one says the said County of Denbigh..

Denbigh, Welsh Dinbych, market town, historic and present county of Denbighshire (Sir Ddinbych), northern Wales. It is situated just west of the River Clwyd, about 10 miles (16 km) south of Rhyl.

In the same vicinity of Oswestry etc.

Crogen Iddon, Llangollen sounds right to me - Ive added a bit of the 1st pic that was out of shot and that looks like Crogen Iddon too. I did search on the net for "Crogen Iddon Chirk" but didn't get a result. Thanks COMPLETED

Hi

I know that this is now Completed but, as I come from that area, I thought I'd add my thoughts.

Quite a number of my ancestors, wider kin group and friends came from  there. Crogen Iddon is part of what is known as the Glyn Traean of the parish of Llangollen. It's main township is Pontfadog which became a separate parish in the mid--late 19th century. By road it is closer to Chirk than Llangollen, given the very steep Berwyns extension that divides the rivers Dee and Ceiriog. 

Its location can be found on this mapping link:

Enter Crogen Iddon  and then zoom in.

Thanks Gadget. I'm trying to tidy up loose ends so this answer feeds into the following question if you're interested https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=850543.msg7180511
