About G. S. Davies

Gerald S. Davies (1845–1927) entered Charterhouse School at age 9 through a nomination at the disposal of the young Prince of Wales, and given to his father by Queen Victoria. In due course he became head of the school and went to Cambridge as a scholar of Christ's. After ordination he served a Bedfordshire curacy, but in 1873, soon after Charterhouse School had been removed to Godalming, he returned to it as a master and remained in that capacity until 1905. In 1908 he was appointed by the Governors of Sutton's Hospital to be Master, in succession to the Rev. Dr. Jelf, who had died.
