If I remember rightly, Rhostryfan is in the parish of Llanwnda. Ancestry's
1861 index only has one Robert Roberts of approximately the right age living
in Tai Newyddion - between "Dolydd" and "Hen Gastell" - I don't
have enough
personal knowledge of the area to be able to say if this is in Rhostryfan or
one of the other parts of the parish.
These are the people of the household, if it is of help:
Name Estimated Birth Year Birthplace Relationship Civil Parish or Township
County/Island
William Roberts abt 1838 Llanengan, Caernarvonshire, Wales Head Llanwnda
Caernarvonshire
Jane Roberts abt 1835 Botwnog, Caernarvonshire, Wales Wife Llanwnda
Caernarvonshire
John Roberts abt 1858 Llanfihangel, Caernarvonshire, Wales Son Llanwnda
Caernarvonshire
Robert Roberts abt 1860 Llanwnda, Caernarvonshire, Wales Son Llanwnda
Caernarvonshire
Jane Roberts abt 1861 Llanwnda, Caernarvonshire, Wales Daughter Llanwnda
Caernarvonshire.
This link "MIGHT" take you to a view of the actual image, if it doesn't
i'll
send you a copy off list.

Hello List
Would SKS on the list please have a look for Robert Owen Roberts aged about
2 in the 1861 Census for Rhostryfan please. The 1891 census for Corwen
(Dolaberalwen) shows that he was born at Pentre Berw, and was then aged 33.
However his obituary, in Yr Adsain of 1921, reports that he was from
Rhostryfan near Caernarfon. Was he born at Pentre Berw because mother had
returned home for his birth and then returned to Rhostryfan? I have also
considered the possibility that the enumerator for the census of 1891
entered false information for his place of birth. If the 1871 Census for
Rhostryfan was also available any information for Robert Owen Roberts (12
years old) again would be most welcome.
Thanks.
Edward
