Notes on TYN RHOS, Bwlchllan, Ceredigion 2015
The house of Tyn Rhos has now all but gone, just the shallow foundations remain – it occupied until 1965. Thanks to Delyth Morgan (whose father lived here last)for this photograph https://www.flickr.com/photos/delythmorgans/431628021/
What remains are extensive and large barns and stables – all ruinous but still worthy of photographing. The footpath towards the site also had a simple and seemingly (but not), well groomed tree – so I took a picture of that too!
Another link Delyth sent shows that the occupies of Tyn Rhos, John and Elizabeth Jones and their five children, moved to Ohio and set up a chapel there and called that Tyn Rhos too. Quite remarkable.

Comments
By Jacob Henry: Hi, I am a descendant of John Jones Tyn Rhos, Who moved to Ohio and named his farmstead and church the same name of the farmstead he lived in in Bwlchllan.
We have a family reunion every year on the same land he owned all those years ago.
My family history is very important to me.
Just last week, My wife and I tracked down and found Stephen Morgan, who I believe is either Delyth's father or Uncle.
Mr. Morgan took us to the old farmhouse, and showed us around.
It was and will probably be the most amazing moment of my life.
