History of the families Cazeau and Casault in Canada and the United States

This site is devoted to all families whose name is related similarly in some way to the patronyms Cazeau and Casault, whether there is a relationship or not, whatever the origins are : French, Spanish or Italian. We will focus nevertheless on the two families of French origin, namely Jean Casaux (Bascout), originally of Béarn, and that of Jean-Baptiste Casault, originally of Normandy.

Recently, there has been considerable reseach undertaken by us in France, the United States and Canada regarding the Cazeau-Casault families. We have even probed into old records at the original sources in France. Results presented on this site are the fruit of this collaboration. I am indebted to Russ Brannen of Bay Village, Ohio, Frank Muraski of Cleveland, Ohio, Charles Cazeau of Deary, Idaho, Richard Casault of Seattle, Washington, Henri Cazeault, of Terrebonne, residing now in France, and René Casault of Ottawa, Ontario.
