Just to add a bit ......
Llanfair is a small parish immediately to the south of the parish of Llandanwg (which is the parish containing Harlech). Apart from Harlech itself, the remainder of Llandanwg and the whole of Llanfair were very rural and Harlech was the only sizeable settlment for both parishes, so people from Llanfair seemed to see Harlech as their town, and quite a lot of people from Llanfair seemed to use Llandanwg church (at least it seems that way from the records).
There was a church in Llanfair so Llanfair would probably the best place for you to look first for the baptism, but the register for Llandanwg has many records of baptisms, marriages and burials for people from Llanfair, so they could well be recorded there.
Speaking from experience, patronymics was alive and well in this area until almost the end of the 19 century so your Peter Hugh(es) is likely to be the son of Hugh 'something or other' and Elizabeth, the dau of Morris 'somethingorother'.

Dear List Members,
I have an ancestor who is said to be from Harlech, Llanfair, and Gwynedd. I
have looked on the map and it looks like Llanfair and Harlech are two
separate areas (towns) located very close to each other. It looks like
Gwynedd is a larger area that possibly encompasses both Llanfair and
Harlech. I am trying to pinpoint where my ancestor is from and find out
which parish recorded his birth.
David Hughs(es) - born March 10, 1810. Parents were Peter Hughs(es) and
Elizabeth Morris.
If someone could enlighten me on these geographical locations, and if
someone has information as to what parish his birth is recorded at, I would
be most appreciative.
Sincerely,
KT
