Are there any newspapers covering the area between Dinas Mawddwy and Bala
for the period 1750 through about 1835? My family lived largely in and
around Llanymawddwy between those dates.

Go to Welsh Newspapers Online
http://welshnewspapers.llgc.org.uk/en/home
This provides a range of newspapers from at least 1860 until about 1910. You
can search on a regional and time basis. Insofar as Ardudwy is concerned, I
would check the Cambrian News, Y Dydd and Y Goleuad. Depends on what you are
looking for. Bear in mind that newspapers published in Welsh and in English.
Bit more difficult after 1910 until more newspapers are available online
through this and other portals. Even so, Welsh Newspapers Online is a great
place to start.
If you a member of a library with access to British Newspapers Online, I
would also check the North Wales Chronicle which is only available to 1900.
There are other newspapers in Welsh on this site for the period 1890 until
1900 including Y Baner and Y Genedl Gymraeg.

is from 1890 to 1940. any suggestions on which newspapers were in
circulation in that area at that period in time would be appreciated.
