From "The Surnames of Wales" by John and Shieila Rowlands, p83
CADOGAN is a Welsh patronymic surname, from the ancient forename Cadwgan(which has elements in common with Gwrgan/Wogan). ... As a surname it is subject to several variant forms, including Carduggan,Carigan, Gudwgan, even KDuggan (Cosheston PR, Pembroke) and most notably misleading, Duggan. Though some of the latter may be directly Irish, that many are Welsh may be deduced from their numbers in the border
countries .....
and from a survey of the PR's 1813-1837: Found only spasmodically across south Wales. It is at its greatest concentration in Glamorgan but is also to be found in Monmouthshire and Pembrokeshire.
