Well done, Doreen & John, and Gareth.
This is a great leap forward for sharing really useful data on Merioneth
ancestry.
From a quick look at the Merioneth material more generally Gareth has been
busy with a lot of other aspects of the GENUKI pages for the county.

Hi Lists
Just wanted let you all to know that, thanks to all the great effort of Gareth
Hicks, our census transcriptions of various parishes in Merionethshire are now
available on the Genuki Website. The ones for Corwen were particularly
difficult because they were so large.
There was a problem when transferring the files from our spreadsheets to
Gareth and then on to the website. Where a dwelling contained an accent in
the spelling that letter was converted to something else. John and I are in
the process of identifying those dwellings so we can get them corrected. So
if you spot any of those errors, or any others for that matter, please let us
know.
Here is the list of the census transcriptions that are now available
Betws Gwerfil Goch - 1851, 1871, 1891
Corwen - 1851, 1871, 1891
Gwyddelwern - 1851, 1871, 1891
Llanfor - 1851, 1871
Llangar - 1851, 1871, 1891
Llansantffraid G.D. - 1851, 1871, 1891
For your additional information the 1851 Census for Llandanwg, Llanfair, and
Trawsfynydd (supplied by Joyce & Douglas Hinde) are also posted on that site
