Greetings,
First I would like to thank Priscilla for posting the info from her Merion
Welsh Tract. I must get a copy of the book!
Secondly, I wanted to share with you the reply I received when inquiring
about the Rhiwlas Estate papers.....just in case I don't get to Wales this
summer and YOU do! <G>

Dear Ms Aulicino,
I have been asked to reply to your enquiry regarding the Rhiwlas estate
papers.
A collection of Rhiwlas Estate papers is held in this Department, and
a schedule is available both in our Departmental Catalogue Room and
on the internet. To search it, go to
www.llgc.org.uk, select
'Department of Manuscripts and Records' / 'Search our Holdings' /
'Search the Databases', and follow the instructions to search
Schedules. Details about readers' tickets (which can be obtained from
the General Office when you arrive) and how to order documents are
also available on the Library's website.
Further papers of the estate are held at the Meirionnydd Record Office,
Cae Penarlag, Dolgellau, Meirionnydd LL40 2YB. The Area Archivist is
Mr Einion Wyn Thomas, and the website is
www.llgc.org.uk/cac/cac0030.htm.
Parish records of Llanfor are also held both in this Department and at the
Dolgellau
Record Office.
Yours sincerely,
Dr David Moore
