Biography
William (Caddell) Cadell is Notable.
William Caddel was baptised on 10 May 1708 in Tranent, East Lothian Scotland. [1]
William Caddell married Christian Hog on 20 July 1734 in Haddington parish in the county of East Lothian in Scotland. [2]
In the 18th century, the family name changed from Caddell to Cadell. However, in Scotland, the family still retain the original pronunciation with the emphasis on the first syllable and therefore Cadell rhymes with Paddle. [3]
William Archibald Cadell of Cockenzie (1708–1777) was a Scottish industrialist, one of the pioneers of the industrial revolution on the Firth of Forth. He was a member of a merchant family involved in the import of iron from Russia and Sweden.
He and his son, also William (baptised 1737, died 1819[1] ), were founders with Samuel Garbett and John Roebuck, of the Carron Iron Works,[2] in 1759, originally known as Roebuck, Garbett & Cadells.
His daughter Christian Cadell married Thomas Edington (1742-1811) who became joint proprietor at Cramond Iron Works before establishing his own independent company in Glasgow in 1797: Thomas Edington & Son. Their grandson was the geologist Thomas Edington FRSE (1814-1859).[3]
His great, great grandson was the geologist Henry Cadell.
