Hello John,
Llanddeusant sounds a good bet as after marriage 1765 Grace would have been
buried under her married name of Williams at Llanddeusant and it says she
was of Llanddyfnan which is another good place to look. Problem being that
she maybe lived and worked at LLanddyfnan before marriage.
All good places to search as we are in Wales for 3 days soon and one will be
spent on the island.
I have a feeling I am going to have to buy some copies of BMDs from
somewhere, Gwynedd FHS appears short of them on Anglesey.
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks,
Martin
All the best from,

Regarding the name Peters.
Peters is a surname readily found in the Llanddyfnan area of Anglesey in the
late 1700s and early 1800s.
My gggrandmother is Dina Peters [1780-1868] and born at Llanddyfnan. Her
parents were Peter Evans and Margaret Hughes of the same area.
In one of the area's local parish churches [maybe Llanddyfnan or
Llanddeusant] there are a number of headstones marking the burial of a
number of generations of this family - all using the surname Peters. These
graves are located in the back right-hand corner of the churchyard. Being in
a corner, this area is sometimes not kept as tidy as the rest of the
churchyard, but the Peters' graves and headstones are there.
If this is helpful and you would like further info, email me on

Peter is an unusual Christian name in North Wales. Presumably, by the
only possible baptism, you mean on the IGI? Hardly any Gwynedd PRs are
included on the IGI for the 1700s. You can check dates on searching
Google for "IGI Batch numbers".
You might try the National Library of Wales website wills index for Bangor
Consistory Court - I would search under Peter (Christian name) and
Peter(s) (surname) as Grace's father might have been either. In fact,
their general manuscripts index is well worth a look, as well as that of
Gwynedd Record Office.
There was a Peters family associated with Llannor, Lleyn, around the same
time.
I hope this helps as a start.
Yours sincerely,
Ian
