| Philip Cadogan is assumed to have been a twin to Henry, but they could just have been baptised together.
He was described as being a labourer at the time of the marriages of his daughter Ann and son Edward.
Philip died at the home of his daughter Ann Jones and her husband William. The transcription of Philip Cadogan's death certificate (courtesy of Lynn Davies) is: 27 February 1860 at Newchurch West, Philip Cadogan, Age 76, Ag Lab. Informant: William Jones(x), present at the death, Newchurch West. Registered 27.2.1860. Registration: March 1860, Chepstow, Vol 11a,p.3.
The 1851 census record for Philip is courtesy of Lynn Davies : Near Pen yr ?, Newchurch West , Monmouthsire, John Hayward, Head, Age 63, Farmer of 25 acres, b. Dimmock , Gloucestershire; Mary Hayward, Wife, Age 58, b. Lydney, Gloucestershire; John Williams, Servant, Age 14, Farm Labourer, b. Langwm; Phillip Caduggan (sic), Lodger, Married, Age 70, Pauper, b. Goytre. HO107 2443 153 5 22.
His age of 76 when he died in 1860 would imply that he must have been born in 1783 or early 1784, but his age of 63 in 1851 would imply his birth in 1787 or 1788. But the 1851 census states that he was born in Goytre rather than Abergavenny. It is, of course, possible that he was not baptised as an infant, just when Henry came along.
His reported age of 50 in the 1841 census cannot be considered reliable. However, the fact that he named his younger daughter Martha is perhaps suggestive, as this would have been his late mother's name. On balance, I believe that this Philip WAS the son of Roger and Martha Cadogan of Abergavenny. |

| No baptism record for this John Cadogan has yet been found in or near Abergavenny. But he is clearly named as the son of Martha Cadogan (nee Hughes) in her administration. His signature on this administration is the same as that on aother documents of his. Also, Hughes was used as a middle name for his son, Caleb (from his second marriage).
John was described variously as carpenter, timber merchant, grocer, and porter dealer. The grocery business was on Frogmore Street. His timber and businesses were said to be in both Monk Street (Pigot 1822, 1835, Slater 1850) and Cross Street (Pigot 1842). The Monk Street location is believed by me to have been the premises occupied by Glyn's map/book shop in 1995. A plot of land was also used across the road. I think that these premises must have been sufficiently largefor them to have also opened onto Cross Street around the corner.
I did wonder if there might have been 2 John Cadogans in Abergavenny, one a porter dealer and/or grocer and the other a timber merchant, because these are rather different trares. However, in the 1852 trade directory (the year he died), he was described as being an ale, porter and timber merchant, so there must only have been one.
John paid 5s 4d land tax as occupier in Frogmore St from 1819-1823, where the proprietor was Elizabeth Jones (widow) - this was presumable a public house. He also owned various properties in Castle St, Frogmore St and Lion Lane.
In 1824 "John Cadogan of lower Abergavenny was elected C. Const on room of John Mason"
On 16th March 1839, John owned a number of properties in Abergavenny that were rented out as follows:
1. House in Butcher row rented by John Daniel (£5 5s pa)
2. House in Butcher row rented by James Loveland (£6 6s pa)
3. House in Butcher row rented by William Powell (£6 6s pa)
4. House in Lion Street rented by Charles Price (£8 pa)
5. House in Lion Street rented by Ambury Hicks (£5 5s pa)
6. House in Lion Street rented by William Harris (£5 5s pa)
7. House in Lion Street rented by Margaret Powell (£5 5s pa)
8. House in Lion Street rented by Jane Evans (£5 5s pa)
9. Small house in a passage rented by John Pritchard (£4 10s pa)
10. House in White Horse Lane rented by Sarah Duberly (£4 10s pa)
11. House in White Horse Lane rented by Elizabeth Edwards (£4 10s pa)
12. House in White Horse Lane rented by Samuel Price (£4 10s pa)
13. House in White Horse Lane rented by Lewis Watkins (£4 10s pa)
14. House in White Horse Lane rented by Richard Pritchard (£4 10s pa)
15. House in Frogmore Street rented by Walter Morgan (£17 pa)
15. House in Frogmore Street rented by Henry Powell (£17 pa)
16. House and Shop in Cross Street rented by John Daniel (£42 pa) - now the bakery?
17. House in Cross Street lived in by John Cadogan (£32 pa see below)
John rented a warehouse in Monk Street from Revd Richard Davies (£5 pa)
John rented another warehouse in Monk Street from John Rees (£4 4s pa)
He also rented a small garden on the corner of Chapel Road from the Duke of Beaufort (£2 pa)
At the time of his son Samuel's death on October 18th 1839, John was living in Cross street.
In the 1841 Census, John is listed as being a Timber Merchant aged 53, living on Cross Street with his second wife Caroline(36) and their children James (8) and Rhoda (6)
In the 1843 Register of Voters for Abergavenny, his qualification to vote was that he owned freehold houses in Cross Street and Frogmore Street.
I believe that John was executor/trustee of the will of a Matthew Morgan [PCC 266/1843 PROBATE 11/1978], but I do not have a copy of this will, nor know the relationship (if any) between them.
In the 1851 census he is shown as being aged 62 (implying that he was born in 1789) and was living at 53 Lion Street Abergavenny with his wife Caroline (aged 47) and their sons Reuben (aged 9) and Dixwell Jones (aged 7)
He died as a result of mortification of the foot
NOTE: The graveyard at St Mary's was cleared out in 1893, but there is a record of his place of burial on a map,
His will is shown below . . . .

I give devise and bequeath all my real and Personal Estate and Effects of every description unto my dear wife Caroline Cadogan for the term of her natural life and from and after her decease I give and devise the same unto and equally between my three children James William Cadogan, Reuben Cadogan and Dixwell Jones Cadogan and their heirs.

| At the time of her marriage in Bristol to Charles Maddox in 1824, Lydia was described as being the sister of John Cadogan, timber merchant of Abergavenny. She was aged 69 when she died in 1867, so must have been born around 1798, but as with younger brother John there is no baptism record at St Mary's Abergavenny. Perhaps there were other children born to Martha and Roger in the intervening years, but it should be noted that Martha would have been aged 52 when Lydia was born!
It would appear that she was confined to Hereford Lunatic asylum from before 1841, probably until the time of her death, be she was not living with her husband at the times of the 1841, 1851 and 1861 censuses. Charles was shown as a widow in the 1871 census. |
