As an Egyptian citizen he wouldn't show up on the ER of that time. He'd have had to take British Nationality before he did.
Has anyone checked the National Archive site for nationalisation records?

I have had some further information, muriel may have remarried to a mr shwartz who was an American citizen ( though from Scandinavian descent) this doesn't of course help me any further with El Sayeed... But it does point to the suggestion that he must have died and been recorded in another country, or a divorce perhaps? Thanks for the help, it's refreshing to find like minded people

"muriel may have remarried to a mr shwartz who was an American citizen ( though from Scandinavian descent) "

shwartz or schwartz?

The second is the usual spelling though said as "shwartz", but it is more of a Germanic name than Scandinavian.

It will probably be how you spelt it... Sorry this is information given over the phone so and I forgot to ask for the spelling :-)

This will be that marriage:

Gender: Female
Birth Year: abt 1923
Age: 44
Marriage Date: 25 Feb 1967

Maybe same person ??

Muriel Feder Schwartz
in the U.S. Public Records Index, 1950-1993, Volume 1
Name: Muriel Feder Schwartz


[ Exact DOB given in 1923, and address in Lake Worth, Florida. ]

If so, probably not the one we're looking for - no Muriel F Bartlett births in England / Wales in right quarter of 1923.

Gender: Male
Birth Year: abt 1912

Unlikely she was born in 1923 as she married in 1938 to El -Sayed Naguib

True - so definitely not the same Muriel.

This was the Muriel who married Gunnar Schwartz, he was the furniture guy. I've had some info from a family member and it would seem some bending of the truth took place with age... which must have meant tampering with documents when leaving England to go to the US to marry her new husband, once i mentioned the name Gunnar, they remembered him. i doubt she was 15/16 years old and married? I'm wondering if it is worth the £30 to try and find El Syaed's war card records... is it likely that he would have any held here as he was egyptian? ive no idea how those sorts of things work.
