Gwynedd Archives, Caernarfon Record Office GB 0219XM7744 Gwynedd Archives, Caernarfon Record Office This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 33177 JA The National Archives GWYNEDD ARCHIVE AND MUSEUMS SERVICE CAERNARFON AREA RECORD OFFICE PAPERS OF EBENEZER MORRIS ROBERTS, OF PENLAN STREET, PWLLHELI, SOLICITOR Catalogued By: David C. Reeve Catalogwyd gan: A student on the 1989/90 U.C.N.W. Archives Administration Diploma Course Reference code: XM 7744 Caernarfon 1990 When this collection was deposited the archival order was non existant. Some reconstruction of individual estates and cases has been carried out, but it was a long and difficult task. Therefore most of the material has been sorted into document type, such as title deeds, wills and legal papers, and a careful search will be required. From internal investigation the collection is of E.M. Roberts, solicitor of Pwllheli. It appears from sources such as directories, newspapers census and voting records that he worked between 1859-1870. His last recorded court appearance seems to have been in March 1870. He does not appear on the voting registry for 1870 and was not on the 1871 census or in Worrall'8 directory. No trace could be found of his death so it is presumed that he moved out of the area. There is also a difficulty in dating his arrival. There is no official record of him in the 1858/9 directory. However internal evidence shows accounts dating from 1851 and correspondence from 1854. Also the earlier papers relate to Cyril Williams, Solicitor and Notary at Pwllheli. These records begin in 1840. Cyril Williams died on the 6 April 1859 and it seems likely that E.M. Roberts took over at this point, or when Cyril Williams retired. No official record of this can be found. However there is a receipt of 1851 (XM 7744/6/4), for an account of work carried out by E.M.Roberts for Cyril Williams. This may indicate that Roberts was working for Williams at that date.

OSWALD ROAD, OSWESTRY, 1878. PREFACE F all the works which have been written relating to the general or family history O of North Wales, none have been for centuries more esteemed than the History of the Gwydir Family. The Hon. Daines Barrington, in his preface to his first edition of the work, published in 1770, has well said, "The MS. hath, for above.a cent~ry, been so prized in North Wales, that many in those parts have thought it worth while to make fair and complete transcripts of it." Of these transcripts the earliest known to exist is one in the Library at Brogyntyn. It was probably written within 45 years of the death of the author; but besides that, it contains a great number of notes and additions of nearly the same date, which have never yet appeared in print. The History of the Gwydir Family has been thrice published. The first editiun, edited by the Hon. Daines Barrington, issued from the press in 1770. The second was published in Mr.
