Janelle,
Check the spelling of "CYFALLI" in line one against the original (Y Llan 18 Jan 1895) before using google.

Pob lŵc,

[hanes teulu]

The Llan item mentions a "Hugh Jones" and a "Robert Griffith".
I have found an obit. for a "Robert Griffith, Prenteg, Tremadog" in the "Cyfaill Eglwysig", pub Sep 1898. It's a monthly, Welsh language, religious periodical of the established Church. Can provide a translation.

Struggling to find details of a "Hugh Jones".

There's 6 households with the address Mynydd Glas in 1901. One is Hugh Jones aged 70, stonemason from Neulog, Anglesey. Then there's mother and daughter Margaret (60) and Mary (27), a few doors down. Margaret Parry, also at Mynydd Glas, was previously a Mrs Jones, but doesn't appeat to have had a son called Hugh

the last sentence is mistranslated by google:
Gwyn fyd na fuasai yn y ddau blwyf mawr gwasgarog
hyn gant o'r un ysbryd a hwy.

should be:
The world would be a better place if they had the spirit of these two sparsely distributed parishes.
