places 1911

[liverpool lass]

Having now found some of my relatives on the 1911 census I now need some help with POB
Baemont, Merionethshire. Could this be a mis transcription of Barmouth where I thought he was born?
Coumgelin, Merionethshire
Capd Cge, Carnarvon.
Ideas pls

Capd Cge, Carnarvon - I'd imagine that this would be Capel Curig.

Thanks for the link. Very useful.

Cwm Celyn is probably intended, the village (Capel Celyn) drowned in 1957 to create Tryweryn Reservoir. Should also point out that the reservoir was made, in the face of considerable opposition, in order to supply Liverpool with water.

Thanks for the info. As a Scouser I also apologise and am very grateful for their sacrifice! You just don't consider these things in the normal run of things
