According to the book "Parish Registers of Wales" Dolgellau
RO should have
the baptismal records for Tywyn up to 1903.
Of course births after 1837 should be registered with the civil
authorities, an index most of Merioneth births marriages and deaths can be
found on :
http://www.northwalesbmd.org.uk/
Tywyn civil records will be found as part of the Gwynedd - De Meirionnydd
(Dolgellau) collection on the site.
The registrar in Dolgellau is just a few hundred yards away from the
records office contact details can be found here:
http://www.gwynedd.gov.uk/gwy_doc.asp?doc=24000&Language=1
Booking a space at the records office isn't strictly necessary, most
locals just pop in unannounced, but as you are travelling so far booking a
space beforehand might be a wise precaution.
