Gweddillion Pen y Pal / Remains of Pen y Pal
Dyma weddillion Ffarm Pen y Pal, cartref yn 1839 i Thomas Lewis a'i deulu. Yn anffodus yn ystod Mis Ebrill y flwyddyn honno cafwyd ei fab David Lewis, 5 oed, yn farw'n gelain ar y Mynydd Du ar ol iddo fynd ar goll tra’n chwilio am ei dad a weithiai yn un o gwarau’r mynydd ac o bosib ger yr enwog Tro'r Gwcw. Pan glywyd bod David ar goll bu chwilio ddyfal amdano am sawl diwrnod hyd nes y daethpwyd o hyd iddo ar y mynydd llwm yn gorwedd ar y ddaear rhwng dwy garreg, ei ben ar ei ancysher a osodwyd i lawr yn ofalus a'i ffon fach wrth ei ochr. Fe'i cludwyd i lawr y mynydd ac fe'i claddwyd ym mynwent Eglwys Llandeilo ar 12 Ebrill 1839. The remains of Pen y Pal Farm (trans. top of the palisade), home in 1839 to Thomas Lewis and his family. During April of that year tragedy struck when his five-year-old son David perished on the nearby mountain. Thomas worked at one of the stone quarries on Mynydd Du (trans. Black Mountain) and possibly near the famous bend known as Tro'r Gwcw (trans. cuckoo bend) and on one particular day David decided to follow his father to his place of work but unfortunately got lost on the way. When the alarm was raised scores of people ventured onto the mountain to look for the young boy but without success. After being missing for three or four days David's body was eventually found lying on the ground between two rocks, his head resting on a carefully placed handkerchief with his little stick by his side. David was carried down the mountain and buried at St Teilo's burial ground, Llandeilo.
