I believe the William Kakel living in Greenwich on the 1901census is my g/grandfather. My grandfather, also called William was his youngest son, born in 1915. His mothers maiden name was Hawkes.
I'm not sure how Henry William Kakel fits into the picture, as he had 3 daughters, around the 1860's. I think? He is also the only Kakel in the 19th century to recieve a certificate of naturalization, #2789 dated 17 November 1858, originating from Hesse??
I would dearly love to hear from anyone who has been researching the name, some of whom I must be related to.
