The parish registers for Llanystymdwy will be at Caernarfonshire Record Office?
-
Thank you i will look into that.very hard to find records on ancestry i suppose seeing as its so far back.Thank again

Ancestry has parish records from London, Dorset, Lancashire, Derbyshire, West Yorkshire and others.
But virtually none from Wales?
Just remember that Ancestry isn't the answer to everything! ;D

Hi
Llanystumdwy does not appear to be included.
Family tree is in Achau ...... by T.Ceiri Griffith [56] and [57], but only goes back as far as the info you already have. It is linked to [65] where it shows marriage of Margaret Mary Roberts, Tyddyn Ysguboriau to John Ellis, Glanllyn, Morfa Bychan, uncle of my grandmother. They lived in Morfa after marriage, but later moved to Tyddyn Ysguboriau, and that's how Tyddyn Ysguboriau family became Ellis'.

Right ok i have that book at home.I thinks thats where the info for him came from.I will have a look again.Might be an archives job as its so far back..Thanks

Find my past is very hit and miss when it comes to Wales.
There are quite a few llanystymdwy PR in Caernarfon. The earlier ones are very hard to read - I also gave family going back to the 1780's in the parish . But I have a little niggle in the back of my mind about Bishops Transcripts ! If you are planning a special trip I would ring the archive first .

The earliest date on FindMyPast for Llanystymdwy Births/Baptisms and Burials and Llanystumdwy Marriages is 1768 - and there appear to be gaps
Also Caernarfon Records Office - http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/CAE/CAE_PR
Note reference to "gaps".
