There is a set of the periodical (1838-1933) in the University of Wales
Bangor Library. If you don't hear from the National Library it may be worth
trying again or trying the University.
This was the search address
http://library.bangor.ac.uk/search*wex/t?SEARCH=Y+Cyfaill+o%27r+hen+wlad&...
but you may have to start the search again using the title search at
http://library.bangor.ac.uk
Alternatively have you tried doing an Interlibrary loan from your local
library? I am a librarian in Wales and occasionally supply to or get items
from libraries in the US.

Subject: [MER] Obits from Y Cyfaill o'r Hen Wlad
Does someone on the list know the best way to get copies of obits
from the
above Welsh Calvinistic Methodist Church periodical?
I am looking for obits for Morgan D. Williams; DOB 1792; DOD 12 June 1860.
Obit is
in V24.08. Also, Jane Price Williams; DOB 1796, DOD 27 Dec.1874.
Obit is in V30.06.
This information comes from "Emigrants from Gwynedd to USA 1795-1932".
I received a copy of an obit from the National Library of Wales at
Aberystwyth a
few years ago as I knew the exact death date and volume
number. I recently e-mailed them regarding this but have not heard back as
yet. I noticed on the web site that they are no longer offering a research
service.
Would appreciate any information you can provide. The two obits I have
obtained in
the past had a lot of information in them (of course, after they
were translated from Welsh!!).
Thank you.
