Hello MPM, and welcome to the Forum.

To achieve your goal of searching for information, you could either list a few questions here... or start a new topic in any of the existing categories. (threads)
However you decide to do it, our eagle-eyed members will spot it, and I am sure you will be inundated with information.

Hello MPM, welcome to the Forum.

 In the 1929 Street Directory the listing for "Coolbawn" is number 31 St Mary's Road, Mrs E Roberts, Apartments.

 The Shop you mention is listed  in the Trade section under "Milliners" -   J. Roberts  Cheltenham House, Mostyn Street, 1 North Parade,

  The alphabetical listing is Roberts, J. milliner, Cheltenham House Mostyn St. res Cheltenham House, 1 North parade, Promenade. Hope this helps! I can't find a listing for a Gwilym Roberts, but there are several G.Roberts listed at various addresses.

(My great uncle was a Gwilym Roberts  - he lived in Caroline Road in later years, but as far as I know he  had no connection with the above business,)

Thanks for the welcome and information Fest & suepp.  What a great start!  I have managed to research a lot of my Norfolk ancestry but this is my first real foray into the Llandudno connection although it has always fascinated me.  There are many gaps but luckily I have kept hold of quite a few photos and some memorabilia concerning Llewellyn Roberts who became quite famous as the Chief Engineer on the Queen Mary and there was a presentation to him acknowledge his achievement and the programme calls him "A Llandudno Townsman" but I'm not sure what relationship he was to my grandfather.  My mother attended the presentation ceremony on a summer visit to stay with her grandparents, I assume at Coolbawn, hence the programme I have now.  I greatly appreciate this information suepp and will pass it on to my brothers and sister, and I feel this site will help us enormously in our search.  I'll know to look at no 31 St Mary's Rd next time :) I am just guessing they lived there as I have a photograph with the address written on the back but maybe it wasn't where my grandparents lived after all?

Sounds good. Let me know if you want a separate topic.

Is NWPO an acronym for North Wales Police Officer?  If so I can't wait to hear what you have planned.

Don't tantalize us, get on with it then.... what is it?    A manned voyage to Venus?  A major act coming to Venue Cymru?   or even more unlikely, some progress on the Pier Pavilion site?   Hmmm.

Who was instrumental in getting you to join this band?    :D

I am of course, referring to the Forum.    ;)
