Cyril George was the son of George Albert and Mary Jane Huskinson (née Jones).
His father George Albert was born in Basford in 1868, the son of George and Rebecca Huskinson.
His mother Mary Jane was born in Molesworth, Huntingdonshire, on 25 September 1864, the daughter of Thomas and Rebecca Jones. In 1871 the family was living in Oundle, Northamptonshire. However, by 1881 Mary (17) was a scullery maid at Paxton Park, Little Paxton, Huntingdonshire, one of nearly 20 staff, including a governess, nurse, valet, butler, cook and eleven indoor servants, in the employ of Lord Esme Stuart Gordon, Marquis of Huntly Gordon.
George Albert and Mary Jane were married at Basford Register Office in 1889 (J/F/M Basford) and had four children, one of whom died in childhood. All were born in Basford and three were baptised at Basford St Leodegarius: Maud Mary b. 15 February 1889 bap. 18 March 1889; Elsie Eveline b. 1893 bap. 11 September 1893 d. 1897 (J/F/M); Cyril George b. 1899 bap. 31 July 1899 and Winonda (Winnie) Doris b. 7 March 1904.
In 1889 when their first child was baptised George and Mary were living at 10 Reigate Road, Basford, but by 1891 George (22), a builder's clerk, and Mary (26) were living on Vernon Road, Basford, with their daughter Maud (2). Also in the household was a boarder, Jesse Aldridge (21), a railway porter.
George and Mary's second daughter, Elsie Eveline was born two years later but died in 1897 aged 3.
The family was living at 32 Vernon Avenue in 1901: Albert (sic), Mary, Maud and Cyril (1).
However, they had moved to 43 Vernon Avenue by the time of the 1911 census but only two of their children, Cyril and Winnie (7), were in the home on the night of the census.
The eldest daughter, Maud, had married Horace Gee in 1908 and in 1911 she and Horace, a brewer's assistant, were living at 38 Vernon Avenue with their son Ronald Horace (b. 21 February 1908)) and Janet Zillah (birth registered 1911 J/F/M). Also in the household was a boarder, Ada Zazer (42, widow), a tailoress.
George Albert died in August 1916.
Cyril's mother was still living at 45 Vernon Avenue when her son's death was confirmed in 1919. However, by the time the 1939 England & Wales Register was compiled she was living with her married daughter Winonda and her husband at 89 Vernon Avenue. Mary probably died in 1951.
Of Cyril's two sisters:
Maud Mary (Gee) and her husband probably had four more children: Evelyn b. 16 January 1915, Dulcie b. 6 March 1920 (m. Boaden ), Doreen M b. 1925 (m. Wright) and Donald E. b. 1930. In 1939 Horace (b. 21 October 1886), a landscape gardener, and Maud, a hospital daily cleaner, were living at 45 Vernon Avenue, Basford. Also in the home were their children Dulcie, an underwear machinist and Evelyn (m. O'Connor) an underwear cutter. The records of three other members of the household remain closed. Horace died in 1959 and Maud in 1975 (reg. J/F/M).
Winonda Doris married John Lucas (b. 1 August 1901) in 1931; there were probably no children of the marriage. In 1939 they were living with her widowed mother at 89 Vernon Avenue, Basford; John's occupation was given as perambulator and coach painter. John died in 1968 and Winonda Doris in 1984 (J/F/M Nottingham).
