Hi, I never knew this history of the Gors Hospital as it were. I was born there in 1964, it's recently been on the market as a building with several flats, I'm not sure if it sold or not.

Hi Whiteblazes

My ancestors also come from this village, but sorry not able to help with your family.
Agree with Hanes Teulu that Tyn Y Cae is next to Pen yr Allt.
Abodes on the other side being Maesmawr and a Bodior Farm

Thank you.  My grandparents were both Owen, but nain goes back to Dolwyddelan and daid Rhoscolyn .

I’ll go for a wander when I have a chance, and see if I can locate anything in that area.  I was there not so long ago but never knew about it then.

1841 and 1851 at Tyn y Cae, Rhoscolyn lived William Edwards and his wife Catherine
Are these your ancestors ?

Yes, 4th great grandparents on my maternal grandmothers side.  I’ve hit a wall with William Edwards though, no idea of parents, would you happen to know?

The Historic Welsh placenames list records a field called Tyn y Cau in Rhoscolyn - too much of a coincidence? Very near the green marker is a small enclosure which could be a house site?

Thank you, yes I came across that one.  I’ll go exploring one day and see if I can find it, I imagine it might just be that little ruin that maybe once was a dwelling, there’s a few around there.

making enquiries of henry wright who was born in dublin in 1856 he went from dublin to holyhead and settled there the family was told that the wright family came from the isle of man has anyone have the wright family in their tree to verify this claim thank you very much for your time

I think there's two Wright families in Holyhead (at least) and these are two different ones.  My great grandfather married in Holyhead, he came over from Isle of Man, and before that the Wrights came from Scotland.  My great grand father George Henry Wright was born 1884, so a different Henry Wright you are mentioning.
