I have now received confirmation that there do not appear to be records of the Gee medal from that period.

Disappointing.

Hi SydneyPenhriw and Keanakoala

Did you see this recent post, presume they are researching the same family.

Hi and Happy New Year all!

I find the following site a marvellous resource.  Have mentioned it today on another thread. Here is a link to the Dolwyddelan pages for those that don't already know about the site.

http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=9931927

 The site's aim is to photograph every grid square of the British Isles. The contributors are volunteers and every photograph has a map reference.

Hope you enjoy the link and maybe find something useful towards your research to boot!

I will add this photo to the Dolwyddelan thread in case anyone else does a search at a later date.

Photo number 38 is of Alice Roberts, Amnen, Maes-y-Braich, Dolwyddelan. There are also Roberts in photo 37.

I have numerous Alice Roberts in my tree, but sadly can't say whether this lady is one of them or not at the moment!
