Searching for an old friend: Wenna Jones, Garth Dorwen

Hi There,

My name is Jamie Barwick and I am currently a student at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth. I am attempting to search for a person who once lived (and may possibly still live), in the area that your nantlle.com website covers. This person is Wenna Jones, who approximately 25 years ago lived at Garth Dorwen, Penygroes, which is a farm I believe.

I think it is best if I explain why I am looking for her. I am 22 and originally from Norwich, Norfolk. I came to Wales in 2003 to study and am currently still here. I have a long-time friend, Pia Euteneuer, who is German and lives in Koblenz, the Rhineland-Platza. I recently went to visit
her and was taken out for a meal with her parents. Her mother, Elizabeth (I am not sure what her maiden name was), was very interested in where I lived in Wales, and with our broken language skills I managed to discover that she had once lived in Penygroes with a Wenna Jones while she was a youngster and travelling. They had then written letters to each other for quite a while
but this had eventually phased out.

She would now, however, very much like to find her again but feels that with her limited English and no Welsh skills this would prove near impossible. Therefore, I volunteered to help out, and hence why I am writing to you. I was wondering if you had any knowledge of either Wenna Jones, or the farm Garth Dorwen in Penygroes, or indeed if you knew of anyone who may?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Kind Regards,
Jamie Barwick.
