	Reason Reginald not on Electoral rolls earlier is probably because he is at Sea. On marriege cert he is Chief Petty officer. 1920 2/3 times away as Wireless Operator and 1926. Maryb

	I thought Reginald was a bookseller. Added: Change of occupation because of war?

Member Since: June 2003 Posts: 4,475 Send Message	It says Chief Petty Officer RNVR The Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve records are on Documents Online at TNA but our Reggie isn't showing up. There's a Reginald Soar with middle name Rhys, and there are lots of Reginald Arthurs but none of them Soar or anything similar.

	So Reginald spent too long at sea and Daisy went off with someone else and took his surname??
