More Earls in the UK! my immediate family are descended from Albert Earl (my grandfather), of Pontypridd, South Wales (although we think our ancestors may have moved to Wales from Somerset or Gloucestershire). Albert moved to Oxford 1920's/30's when the iron foundry he worked at shut down, to work at Rover Cars in Cowley.
Since then the family has mainly been based in Oxford, apart from a few relatives still in the Welsh valleys.
Don't know how useful this is, might make sense if you have found a Welsh connection you're not sure about.
