There are two burial places in Henryd itself. One outside the congregational
chapel which contains about 12 graves (due to vandalism the gate to this
burial ground is locked when the chapel is not in use) and the village
cemetery first used around 1900, containing some 60 or so graves. Earlier
burials would probably be in the parish church yards of Caerhun or Llanbedr y
Celyn or in the denominational church yards of neighbouring Tal y Bont.
I would have thought that Henryd village cemetery is your best bet.
