Notes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadell_ap_Rhodri
Cadell ap Rhodri (854–909) was King of Seisyllwg, a minor kingdom in southwestern 
Wales, from about 872 until his death.
Life[edit]

Cadell was the second son of Rhodri the Great of Gwynedd and Angharad, a princess 
from Seisyllwg. In 872 Angharad's brother Gwgon, King of Seisyllwg, drowned without 
leaving an heir. Rhodri became steward over the kingdom, and while he was unable to 
make a legal claim to the throne, he was able to install Cadell as king.[1]

He passed it to his son, Hywel Dda, at his death in 909. Cadell and Hywel together 
also conquered Dyfed in 904–905, establishing Hywel as the king in that region. After 
his father's death, Hywel ruled the kingdoms jointly as Deheubarth.
