Initial CO observations of the Cepheus OB cloud by Sargent (1977), identified the condensation known as Cepheus A. Other observations have shown that it has the normal empirical indications of a star forming region. In the radio continuum, using the WSRT, it consists of two thermal components (Hughes and Wou-terloot 1982). The West component is associated with the Herbig-Haro object GGD-37, and will not be considered further here. The East component when observed further with the VLA, is seen to consist of two strings of about 14 compact HII regions, and is the subject of the present paper.
