St Dona's church was established by a member of the Welsh royal family, St Dona ab Selyv ab Cynon ab Garwyn ab Brochwell Ysgythroe in 610 CE. His feast is celebrated on 1st of November. The present building dates back to 1878, though the porch dates from the 15th century. It is now part of the benefice of Llansadwrn w Llanddona and Llaniestyn w Pentraeth w Llanddyfnan in the deanery of Tinaethwy. http://jura.rcahms.gov.uk/cadw/cadw_eng.php?id=5474 www.cynnal.co.uk/einbro/llanddona/hanes.htm
