Llyfr Ateb Amgueddfa Werin Cymru, 1960, oddi wrth Mrs G Owens, Llanrwst, yn cynnwys nodiadau manwl ar bynciau amrywiol ym ymwneud â 'Diwrnodgwaith cyffredin ers talwm', tua 1912, yn ei hardal enedigol, sef Y Fachwen, Llanddeiniolen, sir Gaernarfon. Anfonwyd Llyfrau Ateb gan Amgueddfa Werin Cymru ym 1958 at unigolion ar draws Cymru er mwyn casglu a chofnodi gwybodaeth am agweddau o ddiwylliant gwerin yn eu hardaloedd yn cynnwys amaeth, crefftau, bwyd, arferion a thafodiaith. Mae’r ymatebion wedi eu hysgrifennu â llaw yn y llyfrau. Roedd y Llyfrau Ateb yn ddilyniant i’r holiaduron a anfonwyd ym 1937.

A Welsh Folk Museum Answer Book, 1960, received from Mrs G Owen, Llanrwst, containing detailed notes on various subjects including a typical work day in days gone by, c. 1912, in the Fachwen, Llanddeiniolen area of Caernarvonshire where she was born. Answer Books were sent out by the Welsh Folk Museum in 1958 to individuals across Wales as a way of collecting and documenting information on aspects of folk culture in their areas, including agriculture, crafts, food, customs and dialects. The responses were hand-written in the books. The Answer Books had a similar purpose to the earlier questionnaires sent out in 1937.
