A newspaper article has; a son of the late Mr Benjamin Price, of Bryngarn, Dinas, Llanfaes.
ADDED: Dinas is a little east of Llanfaes. It looks a large manision, so I am wondering if Bryngarn was one of the buildings.
ADDED #2: The A40 seens to have demolished the house.
South west, there is a hamlet called Cefn Cantref and several houses with no names.

With help from the other post, is this the baptism in the parish of Cantref?



I checked before looking at the maps that the parish was Cantref not Cartref. Cantref village is also shown on the map link.

It seems there are several hamlets called Cantref in the area.

I'm not surprised given what it means in Welsh  ;D

I smiled at a hill called Bryn.
