They had at least one child James Elias Caswell age 15. They seem not to have ties with Caswell to Ma. They may have come in through Port Of New Orleans. They settled in St.Landry Parish (county) Louisiana.If anyone can inform me as to where I cane find passengers list from England for that period I'd truly appreciate it.

Isn't that called 'Gerrymandering'? > >No, I'm afraid that what has happened is that the politicians have tried to move Oxfordshire! Carswell Marsh is well within the old County of Berkshire as is Wantage, Didcot, Abingdon etc. As a matter of political, as opposed to historical, fact Berkshire no longer exists - the old county is now composed entirely of separate so-called "unitary authorities". When this happens to Wiltshire, I trust all Moonrakers will gather to its defence. > >Cheers from sunny Wales > >Paul > > >

According to: http://194.6.96.91/property/Loc/carswell.htm Carswell Marsh is in Oxfordshire...maybe someone moved it... -- John Zillwood Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada ICQ#: 2360148 email:zillwood@uniserve.com
Paul & Richard Taylor responded to my request within 2 hours of me placing it on the listservers. WOW! So, my Hugh de Carswell & his wife Idonea (c1255) came from darkest berkshire eh? Does this mean we Kazzies are really berkies, or can 750 years in Wilts count! Great find folks! Now, if only I could get some photos of Carswell Marsh! Does anyone have any history on the place? -----Original Message----- From: Pauline Vivash <Tvark@btinternet.com> To: Mike Caswell <mike@caswellplating.com> Date: Saturday, August 08, 1998 3:34 PM Subject: Re: [Moonrakers] Carswell in Berkshire >Hi Mike! > >Although I'm on leave in Wales, I'm keeping up with Moonrakers gossip - my wife's old 386 won't allow me to get involved with esoteric stuff like Pegasus (it just about manages plain text).

Just pouring over some documents on the BUCKERIDGE family of Basildon Berks, and I find the FIRST entry fot Henry Bucuric (Buckeridge) in - wait for it - 1224ad, says - Pedes Finium (Lands in Carswell, Berkshire) Now, us Kazzies know there was a family coat of arms from Binfield, Berks, but where is Carswell? maybe this is where we originated?

The Wooton family could originate in Wiltshire, do you know of any connections there? I also need to see if there is a WOOTEN connection.
Hope you folks can join your databases together. Perhaps we should collectively try and sort out ALL the Taunton CASWELL files into one now! -----Original Message----- From: nancy caswell <nasimpson@snet.net> To: Mike Caswell <mike@caswellplating.com> Date: Saturday, August 08, 1998 10:17 AM Subject: Re: [CASWELL-L] Fw: Entry on Caswell Bulletin Board >Mike Caswell wrote: >> >> -----Original Message----- >> From: PSmith7933@aol.com <PSmith7933@aol.com> >> To: mike@moonrakers.com <mike@moonrakers.com> >> Date: Saturday, August 08, 1998 3:38 AM >> Subject: Entry on Caswell Bulletin Board >> >> >You have a new entry in your guestbook: >> > >> >------------------------------------------------------ >> >Name: Paul Smith >> >Email: <PSmith7933@aol.com> >> >Location: Kennewick, WA USA >> >Time: Saturday, August 8, 1998 at 00:38:11 >> > >> >Comments: Please, if anyone knows of Hester Caswell of Taunton, Mass. b: >> 1669 m: Samuel Smith.

Hi, John, I certainly understand your mother-in-law's wanting to find her roots before she passes....i'm in the same position. Please try to contact this person (Steve Caswell) in Georgia...he had some southern folks, maybe there are some Louisianasians among them! Here is his e-mail: sfc@uunet.uu.net I haven't had contact with him in a year or two, but i'm hoping he's still at that address; he was a nice person to chat with. My best wishes to your mother-in-law and to you.

Last week someone posted an advert for their site on my CASWELL guestbook. I wrote a very pleasant, civil (yes, I can y'know!) letter to the 'offender' and then got a pile of verbal abuse, mainly derogatory remarks about my mother. I forwarded this to HOTMAIL, where the 'abuser' was hosted, and as you can see, they closed his account. We don't have to put up with this stuff! -----Original Message----- From: policy@hotmail.com <policy@hotmail.com> To: Mike Caswell <mike@caswellplating.com> Date: Thursday, July 30, 1998 12:58 PM Subject: Re: Abusive Message > > > > >Thank you for your message to Hotmail. >We have closed the account responsible for the email you reported.
