Hi Milesy, thanks for getting back about the photos of Guys,It was a shock to say the least as  Ethal(your Great grandmother)Eric (your Great uncle Iorarths Father) and Nevile your Grandfather all decided that they would put them in the archives in Caernarvonshire for the History of Wales.
I was in the Archives not so long ago and was puzzeld then about no photo History being available .When did they send them out Australia? .

well mum has now been gone for more than 6 years so it is probably around 8 or 9 years ago.
Certainly Nevile knew they were here, but i beleiv Eric (who i never met) died some years before that so i guess that left Nevile as the 'owner' of them.
From memory i dont think mum was very impressed when she went to see them in the archives (how they were being stored etc) so had them bought out here.
Anyway they are here if your interested in them :-)

So Iorarths is Eric's son?

this was from the link above - this was my mothers (now deceased ) email so thats why you cant reach her

I have recently come into posession of about 10,000 photographic negatives
>(many of them glass) which were taken by my grandfather, Guy Hughes, a
>photographer from Pwllheli, Caernarvonshire. The date range is 1909 - 1942,
>subjects cover a wide range of weddings, May Queens as well as personal
>portraits and other items of local interest.

> Amongst them, there are 10 scenes from 'Madryn', which appears to be a
