Roedd dau o'r oedolion yn fud a byddar, disgrifiwyd un fel 'mud o fabandod'. Gwelir o gofnodion Ffordun yr ymdrechid ym 1891 i gynorthwyo plant a gafodd eu geni gydag anabledd:

"John Corfield
A report was received from the Cardiff Deaf & Dumb School stating that this boy was making very satisfactory progress and inclosing Account for maintenance and clothing. Resolved that the Account be paid and that the father of the boy be called upon to repay the cost of the clothing and the amount agreed upon between him and the Guardians."

"The report stated that the Commissioner found that all the inmates were fit cases for workhouse care, that they were usefully employed, adequately dieted, and generally well cared for. Attention was however recommended to the following matters.
(1) That in future for the permanent detention of every fresh case an order by a justice supported by two medical certificates will be necessary as directed by Sec 24 of the Lunacy Act 1890.
(2) That more frequent bathing of these inmates is desirable and that they should have a bath once a fortnight each in clean water
(3) That there is in the Workhouse a great want of a housemaid's closet with hot and cold water laid on over a sink where utensils can be washed, and that a fireguard is wanted in the young men's ground floor day room for the protection

Resolved that the Master's attention be drawn to the report"
