Gohebiaeth a chopïau o ohebiaeth, 1930-1946, yn bennaf rhwng Robert (Silyn) Roberts a'r Holiday Fellowship, sef y corff a drefnodd taith Silyn i Rwsia ym 1930, ac, yn dilyn marwolaeth Silyn ym 1930, rhwng Mary Silyn Roberts a'r Holiday Fellowship; ynghyd â llythyrau, 10 & 14 Rhagfyr 1931, rhwng Mary Silyn Roberts ac Ernest Green, ysgrifennydd cyffredinol Cymdeithas Addysg y Gweithwyr, ynghylch yr Holiday Fellowship; a chopi o rifyn Hydref 1931 o Over the Hills, cylchgrawn yr Holiday Fellowship. Gohebydd yr Holiday Fellowship cyn 1934 yw'r diwygiwr cymdeithasol Thomas Arthur Leonard (1864-1948). Mae'n amlwg oddi wrth ei sylwadau nad yw Silyn yn credu'r adroddiadau negyddol yn y wasg ynghylch safiad cymdeithasol-wleidyddol Rwsia = Correspondence and copies of correspondence, 1930-1946, mainly between Robert (Silyn) Roberts and the Holiday Fellowship, which body organised Silyn's Russian trip in 1930, and, following Silyn's death in 1930, between Mary Silyn Roberts and the Holiday Fellowship; together with letters, 10 & 14 December 1931, between Mary Silyn Roberts and Ernest Green, general secretary of the Workers' Educational Association, regarding the Holiday Fellowship; and a copy of the Autumn 1931 edition of the Holiday Fellowship magazine Over the Hills. The Holiday Fellowship's correspondent prior to 1934 is the social reformer Thomas Arthur Leonard (1864-1948). It is obvious from his observations that Silyn does not believe the negative reports in the press concerning Russia's socio-political stance.

Gohebiaeth a chopïau o ohebiaeth, 1929-1944, yn bennaf rhwng Swyddfa Ranbarthol Cymdeithas Addysg y Gweithwyr, a leolwyd yng Ngholeg Prifysgol Cymru, Bangor, a Choleg Harlech, ynghyd â gohebiaeth oddi wrth bencadlys Cymdeithas Addysg y Gweithwyr yn Llundain (prif ohebydd Ernest Green, ysgrifennydd cyffredinol y Gymdeithas) at y Swyddfa Ranbarthol a gohebiaeth rhwng y Swyddfa Ranbarthol a darpar-fyfyrwyr Coleg Harlech. Bu'r Swyddfa Ranbarthol dan ysgrifenyddiaeth Robert (Silyn) Roberts hyd ei farwolaeth ar 15 Awst 1930, pryd y cymerwyd yr awennau gan Mary Silyn Roberts. Bu cysylltiad agos erioed rhwng Cymdeithas Addysg y Gweithwyr a Choleg Harlech hyd nes, yn 2001, fe gyfunwyd y ddau fudiad. Prif ohebwyr Coleg Harlech yw'r warden, Ben Bowen Thomas, a'r cadeirydd, Dr Thomas Jones. Sefydlwyd yr ysgoloriaeth a gyfeirir ati gan Dr Thomas Jones yn ei lythyr dyddiedig 25 Tachwedd 1934 er cof am ei fab, Elphin Lloyd Jones, a fu farw trwy ddamwain yn ddeuddeg oed (gweler, er enghraifft, Eirene White Papers yn LlGC). = Correspondence and copies of correspondence, 1929-1944, primarily between the District Office of the Workers' Educational Association, located at the University College of Wales, Bangor, and Coleg Harlech, together with correspondence from the Workers' Educational Association headquarters in London (main correspondent Ernest Green, general secretary of the Association) to the District Office and correspondence between the District Office and prospective Coleg Harlech students. The District Office was under the secretaryship of Robert (Silyn) Roberts until his death on 15 August 1930, after which the rôle was taken over by Mary Silyn Roberts. A close alliance had always existed between the Workers' Educational Association (WEA) and Coleg Harlech, the two bodies eventually merging in 2001. Coleg Harlech's primary correspondents are its warden, Ben Bowen Thomas, and its chairman, Dr Thomas Jones. The scholarship referenced by Dr Thomas Jones in his letter dated 25 November 1934 was established in memory of Dr Jones' son, Elphin Lloyd Jones, who died in an accident aged twelve years old (see, for example, Eirene White Papers at NLW).
