Hi Rose,
Yes it is quite a puzzle but as you say maybe 'Caswell' was not his
birth Surname.
Thank you,
Julia.

Something seems off. Where is he in 1841 and 1851? There are no Caswells in Pembrokeshire until 1892 on FreeBMD. Makes me think he was born under another name.

Maybe ???


Marriages Mar 1870 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CASWELL William - Bedwelty 11a 121
Griffiths Morgan Bedwelty 11a 121
Harmon Mary - Bedwelty 11a 121
Lewis Gwenllian Bedwelty 11a 121



Check mother's maiden name on daughter's birth cert
Maybe William was married before...or perhaps they just didn't marry before the girls were born


Births Dec 1866
Casswell Margaret A - Bedwelty 11a 84

This is the right family thank you.
I have been researching William Caswell born 1835 for a while but have not
