Rear-Admiral Sir Oswald Nigel Amherst Cecil, KBE, CB (11 November 1925 – 10 March 2017) was a British naval officer.

Early life

Oswald Nigel Amherst Cecil was born 11 November 1925,[1] to Commander Hon. Henry Mitford Amherst Cecil (1893–1963) and Hon. Yvonne Cornwallis (1896–1983). Cecil is a paternal grandson of Lord William Cecil (1854–1943) and the 2nd Baroness Amherst of Hackney (1857–1919) and a maternal grandson of the 1st Baron Cornwallis (1864–1935). He was educated at Ludgrove School and the Royal Naval College, Dartmouth.[1]

In 1959, he reached the rank of Commander.[2] From 1961–63, Cecil commanded HMS Corunna in the Mediterranean and then HMS Royal Arthur from 1963–65. In 1966, he was promoted to the rank of Captain.[3]

Cecil returned to Dartmouth to command a training squadron from 1969–71. In 1968 he was made an Esquire (Esq.St.J. the lowest grade) in the Venerable Order of Saint John.[4]

Cecil received the acting rank of Commodore in 1971 and was sent to South Africa as a Naval attaché to Cape Town until 1973. He was then a director of the Naval Operational Requirements from 1973–75. On 7 January 1975, he was appointed a Naval aide-de-camp to The Queen.[5] He left this position on being promoted to Rear Admiral on 7 July 1975.[6][7] He then became the NATO Commander of the South East Mediterranean and Flag Officer, Malta. In the 1978 New Year Honours, he was made a Companion of the Order of the Bath (CB).[8]

Cecil left the island with the last of the British Forces in 1979 and on, 16 June 1979, was made a Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire (KBE).[9] He retired from the navy on 15 September 1979.[10]

On 9 September 1980, Cecil became Lieutenant Governor of the Isle of Man,[11] a post he held for five years. Also in 1980, he was promoted to Knight of the Order of Saint John (K.St.J.).[12]

Personal life

On 6 April 1961, he married Annette Barclay (born 1934), daughter of Major Robert Edward Barclay of Mathers and Urie (1906–1959) and Nesta Anne Bury-Barry (1909–2004). Together they had:[1]

  • Robert Barclay Amherst Cecil (born 1965), who married Laurie A. Kohan[1]

Cecil, who lived with his wife of over fifty-five years, on the Isle of Wight, died on 10 March 2017, at the age of 91.[13]
