Two errors:
J.H. "Roberts" (1848-1924) was Pencerdd "Gwynedd" - not Gwalia.
With apologies.

"Hanes Plwyf Llanfor" by J. H Roberts, Tynycoed, was the
prize
winning essay at Bala Eisteddfod held in June 1893 (Source: "Y Cymro"

A copy is available at the National Library of Wales under the
following reference:
J.H. Roberts, Hanes Plwy' Llanfor, y traethawd buddigol yn Eisteddfod
y Bala, 13 Gorff. 1893 c.f. Casgliad J.R. Hughes 42 Y Seren, 19 Mai
1894
The "other" J. H. Robers was probably Pencerdd Gwalia (1848-1924).
