The story behind the different spellings of this last name is a feud between 2 brothers. They hated each other so much that one added another L onto the end of his name so no one would know they were related. From what I can understand from my family tree all Cashel's and Cashell's are related. there is also another form of our name made by mistake during immigration. The new spelling is Kashell. This is a spelling error made by the person who took the info at immigration services.
