B/EP/71 Llywel Parish Records Diocese of Swansea and Brecon The parish church of Llywel is dedicated to St David. The ancient parish of Llywel has been subject to several boundary changes, divisions and groupings, and is presently part of the benefice of Blaenwysg. For records relevant to this parish also consult records for Traean-glas, Defynnog and Rhidybriw. The original list of parochial records incorporated both the records of St David's church, Llywel with the records of St Mary's, Traean-glas. In 2002, a decision was made to list the records for Traean-glas separately.
