Subject: [GWYNEDD] Davies-Dolgellea family
who should I write to for this please
Dear Sirs, I wrote some time ago for any info. re the Davies family
My
grandparents REv. John Davies and Margaret were, from what I can
gather,
in the parish of St. Marys. My father was Elfyn John Davies who later
changed his name to Weston-Davies when he married my Mom Gladys Edwina
Weston - Both my maternal grandfather EJ Weston and my maternal uncle
Lionel Weston were buried in Dolgellau as well.
