Hi Rance, there are quite a few Caswells in the Rhondda.

There's a John Alfred Caswell b1889 Q2 St. Germans (Cornwall) 5c 39.

Long way from wales but everything else matches up.

Hi Paul
Many thanks - I'm pretty sure the John Alfred born in Cornwall died quite soon after but the John born in Corwen is worth further investigation - thanks again

Hi Bethan
Many thanks for info.  Please excuse my ignorance but can you tell me which County the Rhonnda comes under?
Cheers
Rance

Hello Rance, if you are looking at the 1881 census Rhondda was then called Ystradfodwg, later on it came under Mid Glamorgan, the Caswell's that I know originated in Clydach in the Rhondda, hope this helps if not get in touch again.

Has anyone out there come across any 'Caswell' s living in Wales, possibly Cardiff?
I'm looking for JOHN ALFRED CASWELL born 1889.  He emigrated to S.Africa approx. 1916 and died 1937.
Any help at all very much appreciated.
