Gwynedd memories

1901 census

This is actually a memory of my father, who is listed in the census of Wales for 1901 as being a quarryman, lodging at Cidwyn View, Betws Garmon aged 21.

I hope to visit the village (?) this Sept. and also the quarry. I would love to know if this house still stands.

Bethesda memories

Bethesda, the Lake, Nant Ffrancon Pass c1960

I used to rock climb in the area during the 1960's with my friends.
Not that I was a good climber, but I loved the rugged freedom of the mountains. I also have memories of a young girl from Gerlan who was very nice to me. Her name was Sylvia.
