There are other churches and cemeteries, but I believe this is the only church with a graveyard around it that I have seen. When it became full I believe they opened the other one, but there is not a church with it.

Hi All I just got my g.grandparents marriage certificate yesterday, Robert WILLIAMS and Ellen OWEN were married in the "Parish Church in the parish of Llandegai". Does this church have a name (as in St Mary's or St Anne's or something) and whereabouts would this have been located? I am also interested in two occupations - Robert is a Stoker, any idea of where he would be employed as in censuses he is normally shown as a quarryman, also his father John WILLIAMS is a Gateman, any ideas about this one also please? Regards Barbara in Sydney via Liverpool

St. Ann's just merged with another church a year or so ago. The original church was buried when a tip from the quarry came down. There's a little stream that runs from under it and across the road. Lord Penrhyn did not realize that the quarry would grow as quickly as it did. He paid to have the new church built. This church has closed because it would be too costly to make the repairs. I'm not sure of the occupations. I'm sure someone will be though. Most in Llandegai worked the quarry. There was a railroad that once ran the slate to the water, but I'm not sure of the years. The rails are still in place.
