Just checked: TCG doesn’t go further than David Griffith.

His father would be Griffith ap something or variations of that spelling.

I’ve scrolled through the many many many trees linking to him. Most miss the patronymic system so most have got it wrong. If TCG stops going back, it means that the reader should then go to JEG Pedigrees or he couldn’t find anything definitive. He’s not perfect though, there are mistakes, sometimes you can go further.

Hi, yes 500 plus trees!

It’s because it’s in T Ceiri Griffith’s Achau book.

Abbreviated to TCG.

Many people have copied directly from it. They may not be related, they just like building trees (!) or click on suggested links without checking.

I did a quick search on Griffith’s pedigrees for Gelli Ffrydiau. Nothing in his book.

coed y parc is where felin fawr slate workshop is situated. The railway ran through it.

They have a large waterwheel that was powered from a series of 4 reservoirs.

Not sure if brakeman is related to the railway or the waterwheel.

she’s born in llanddeiniolen in 1901 and appears to have died by 1911.

Have you tried newspaper records for an obituary?

Although the parish is llandwrog the village is talysarn.

There’s logic there!

You’re probably in good company in assuming that one Ellis was related to another in the same parish. I can imagine that J E Griffith also made similar leaps of faith. Evidence is sparse!

If I can convince my wife to do a dna test, or even her father, it would perhaps group this tribe together. The problem I have is that the tree I’ve created takes a different turn at the daughter of the game keeper. This would create a false grouping.
