Llanbabo

"LLANBABO, a parish in the hundred of Tal-y-Bolion, county Anglesey, 2 miles N.W. of Llanerchymedd, its post town, and 11 from Holyhead. It is a small agricultural place. The living is a curacy annexed to the rectory of Llanddeusant, in the diocese of Bangor. The church is dedicated to St. Pabo, one of the early princes of Wales, who is said to have founded a church here in 460, upon the site of which the present one is built. His tomb is still pointed out in the church." [From The National Gazetteer of Great Britain and Ireland (1868) - Transcribed by Colin Hinson ©2003]
