Hello Barbara
No connection unfortunately. My Merioneth Robertses were from Llandanwg on the coast,
then they gradually moved east thru Llanfihangel y traethau then Maentwrog and Trawsfynydd
and eventually landing up in Blaenau Ffestiniog in the late 1880s (along with thousands of
other Robertses!). I've got another line of Robertses but they are from Montgomery -
Llanfyllin. To date I haven't found any from the Bala area ...... but I'm working
hard on tracking them down (progress is slow!!) so I'll look out for a Bala
connection.
Thanks for getting in touch. It's good to know there are others out there struggling
with Robertses.
