Amlwch data

Amlwch is now a small  village on the North Coast of the Isle of Anglesey just off the North Wales coast.

In the C18th and C19th it was the location of the largest open cast copper mine in the world.

The need to export from the copper mine resulted in the development of a small local harbour and sail ship building industry.

It it's turn the sailing ships resulted in many people leaving Amlwch to live and work first in Liverpool and then many other area around the world.

In these pages I have tried to collect information about Amlwch which might be of interest to anyone who has left. 

The information in these databases has been collected by a number of individuals,from various sources.
Their hard work is acknowledged.
