Dear Barry,
My late Father came from Bodfardden Wen, Llanfachraeth and my cousin's wife,
Annie Thomas and son are still there. She knows your family. She was at
Maggie's funeral (known as Maggie Ellen).
Maggie Ellen's son, Richard is now at Tyn y Felin.
She thinks Mary Looms was from Brynsiencyn.
Bessie was the mother of Alun Michael MP.
The unnamed son, brother to Maggie, Owen and Bessie was a policeman was at
Scotland Yard, possibly named John. Believed to be fairly senior.
Farm is about 5 acres. She will ask someone else - one of the family for
more information - now around 90.
Hope this means something to you.

Subject: [ANG] Williams Llanfachraeth, later Roberts
Dear List
I am trying to add to my knowledge of my GF's siblings. My GF was born and
lived at Tyn Y Felin Llanfachraeth (grid ref: 231984,383946) and his
father
continued to farm there appearing in the 1901 with the youngest
daughter
Elizabeth Jane Williams (Lizzie Jane as she was known). We think that
Lizzie
married Owen Roberts and remained at Tyn Y Felin as we can remember
visiting
him there post WW2. Owen may have married twice and we believe that
there
were four children, Maggie and Owen, who lived locally, Bessie who moved
to
Colwyn Bay and another son who became a policeman in London.
This is the family in the 1881 census.
The headings are Name, Relation, Marital Status, Age, Birthplace,
Occupation
Thomas Williams Head M 50 Llanfaethlu, Engineer Threshing Machine
Driver
Elizabeth Williams Wife M Female 44 Llanfachraeth Engineer Wife
Hugh H Williams Son Male 10 Llanfachraeth Scholar (2)
Thomas Williams Son Male 8 Llanfachraeth Scholar
William Williams Son Male 5 Llanfachraeth Scholar (1)
Elizabeth Williams Dau Female 2 Llanfachraeth
Dwelling: Tyn Yn Felin, Llanfachraeth, Anglesey
(1) is William my Grandfather b 1875 d 1947.
(2) is the Rev HH Williams b 1871 d 1955
My GF married Mary Looms (b 1879 d 1964) in May 1899 and I have quite a
bit
of information on the Looms family if an member of the list is
interested.
As someone mentioned, searching for Williams on Anglesey is some task but
if
there is anybody out there with some info do get in touch.
Cheers
Barry
