Searching for birth of Cyril Reel
Hi , firstly Happy New year to all . I am searching for a birth of a cyril Reel a eleanor B Reel or a Doris May Reel .for a relative in aus . He is part of her and my husbands tree . All i have to go on at the moment is the 1939 register . For Marlbrough and Ramsbury . I have had a look at this , but i'm not sure if the surname is Reel and not Peel ? so if someone could have a look and give me their view i would be grateful as it looks like Peel to me . But Cyril was born in 1890 according to the register location not known Eleanor in 1890 and Doris May in 1914 . It says cyril is the steward of the Hostel , around the area . and the others domestics / cooks etc . Doris Mays surname is crossed with clark written in . I would love some help with this puzzler . Cyril is in east africa Having a child in 1927 with Whilamina Muller , child Erna Mina Muller . if this is the same person , So he must leave africa at some point I cant check passenger lists etc as my ancestry sub is only uk and not worldwide . Any help would be gratefully received thanks ps i tried to look up where the Hostel was etc .
but as yet have not found anything . Thanks |

It is Peel - compare the initial letter with the initial letter of Perkins a few lines down. Also there is the marriage of a Doris M Peel to Arthur W Clark in 1940 in Marlborough.
Is your Cyril (the one who was in East Africa in 1927) definitely a Reel? If so then the one on the 1939 Register isn't him. |

Also, if you were searching passenger lists for people arriving in the UK, they would be included in a "premium" UK sub ("All UK & Ireland records") but not an "essentials" one ("UK Records only").

This seems likely -
M MQ 1914 Sheffield 9c 736 Cyril Peel to Eleanor B Jackson Followed by Birth SQ 1914 Sheffield 9c 1458 Doris May Peel. Mmn Jackson OC Last edited by Olde Crone; 02-01-24 at 10:47. Reason: Added |

A bit more - SPECULATIVE! Needs checking with census, certs etc.
Marriages - SQ 1890 Sheffield 9c 478 Arthur Jackson to Jane Barber. Birth - 1890 SQ Sheffield Eleanor Barber Jackson, mmn Barber. Even more speculative - Marriage 1865 DQ Sheffield 9c 408 John Peel to Mary Ann Perkins. The trouble with this one (Cyril) is that he was born after 25 years of marriage, not impossible of course, but a bit suspicious. Cyril Peel mmn Perkins JQ 1890 9c 442 OC |

Hi Kite , i thought the name looked like Peel not Reel . and the marriage of Doris would fit as you have said . So i will have to go back to their tree as it throws a lot of their info into doubt , im sure ive seen somewhere on the tree that Cyril was the brother of a Basil Reel a famous or infamous hunter in tanzania . But the cyril reel on the 1939 census may have no relevance to them . Thanks

Hi according to the tree the father of Cyril Reel was arthur george watkins Reel born in Bombay in 1866. I cant see Basil Reel on there , but it suggests he's a brother of cyril . and he was a famous hunter in Tanzania which i found on Google . I know Whilamina muller was living in Tanzania , and Erna was definetly born in tanzania so that part is correct . Whether the Cyril On the 1939 reg is the correct person ,is looking a little bit dubious .? There are a few military records for the father , which i havent looked at yet , but will do that. Because i haven't a world wide sub I cant check everything . thanks

So the Cyril who you are looking into is definitely Cyril Reel, and therefore not the person who you found on the 1939 Register.
