Clwyd memories
Going to School at Llanelidan
I went to Llanelidan school in the 1950 s with my cousin Gwyn Rowlands from Sowrach, I was from Betws yn Rhos, Colwyn Bay.
Childhood Memories
I used to stay with my nain in Clawddnewidd and have very fond memories. Mrs Watson lived next door and used to pop in every night with some fruit for us. At that time there was a top shop run by Mr Lake and his wife, they were always so nice to us. We used to go to the chapel for service and my nain and a few other villagers used to pluck pheasants. My Uncle Emrys lived in Nant Farm and used to call at nain's every morning with fresh milk from the farm. We went on many walks picking rasberries for nain to make a pie but my favourite was always her ginger cake. I was told never to go to the pond at the bottom of the village as it had a whirlpool in it but of course I had to find out. Once a year there was a show and my nain always dressed up in her Welsh lady outfit. I still visit Clawdd now to... Read more
ELLIS TABLE WATERS RUTHIN
TRYING TO FIND ANY INFORMATION OR PHOTOS OF MY GREAT GRANDADS FACTORY ?
Clwyd Sanatorium
My grandmother's father had TB and there are letters from him to my grandmother from Clwyd Sanatorium Llan Bedr Hall, Ruthin, North Wales. I was wondering if anybody knew anything about this place or had any photos. Sadly he returned home and died between 1916 - 1918.
Happy Holidys
1942-1955 - my very happy annual holiday from London with my Nain & Taid (Hannah & John Roberts) at Dystell House in Llanwrog. We used to carry water from the" pistyll" at the top of the field and where Captain their horse grazed. Prior to moving to Dystell House they farmed at "Galchog", my Uncle Dafydd and Auntie Liza took it over afterwards. My cousins, Albert and Henry, used to take me for milkshakes at the "Milk Bar" in the square and my Uncle Ted (their father) would take me to the cattle market which used to fascinate me coming from a "city". Happy memories! Nain moved eventually to 27 Borthyn, where we still went for our holidays. I can remember "Hafod" Dairies and the lovely Flower Shows, and Tom Edwards who was a postman and friendly with my Auntie Dinah. Also walks through "The Warren" from Galchog down to Pwll Glas Golf course and then back via Mwrog Street. My Taid died in 1946 & Nain... Read more
Shoemaker, Well Street, Ruthin
Anybody have any information on my third great grandfather and grandmother Thomas Davies born in Llanbedr abt 1832 and Mary Davies born abt 1837 in Upton, Liverpool He was a shoemaker in Well Street, Ruthin. They had a son and a daughter Mary Jane, and Robert Owen Davies. Mary Jane is my second great grandmother. I know Thomas' father was Hugh Davies and Jane Davies from Llanbedr. I have no idea how Mary Davies (nee Jones) came to live in Ruthin and marry Thomas, and all I know is that she stated on census that she was born in Upton, Liverpool. I don't know what happened to Mary Jane's brother Robert Owen Davies born 7th December 1868 either, he was on the census 1901 aged 32 and living with my widowed 3rd great grandmother at 7 Llanrhydd Street. Would love to have info as to what happened to Robert, and any info on Mary Davies.
Carrog Memory, as A WW2 Evacuee.
I first visited Carrog in 1939 as an evacuee, at the start of World War 2. I was accompanied by my two sisters, having travelled by train from Birkenhead on the Wirral. All the evacuees were escorted to the Church Hall where we waited to be "claimed" by our new guardians. We were taken to a house called Dewis Dydden, by the bridge, in the care of Mrs Jones. As children, we were pleased to see that part of the house was the village sweet shop!
As there was not enough room in the School for us all, we were given the use of the Church Hall for our lessons, different age groups together in the one room.
Part of the ground in front of Dewis Dydden was a sloping area leading down to the river, where there were two pig-sties and a small hen-pen. It became my job to look after the pigs and hens. One part of the job was to set traps... Read more
