Theodore William Stallybrass was born in ‘Garth House’, Taff’s Well, Glamorgan on 14 January 1887. He graduated as a M.B., B.S. at the University of Durham and in July 1909 joined the R.A.M.C. In August 1912 he volunteered and was accepted for secondment to the Egyptian Army. In August 1912 he was posted to Kordofan Province and except for a short posting to Sennar March-October 1914, remained there until July 1917 when he was transferred to Bahr-el-Ghazal, where he was based until September 1918. He was promoted to Captain in January 1913 and Major in July 1921.
While in the Sudan he saw service in the operations against the Jebel Miri in the Kadugli District and Nuba Mountain Province during 1915, and the Atwot campaign of 1918. Stallybrass remained on secondment to the Egyptian Army until 1922, being Senior Medical Officer at Cairo and Khartoum, and often deputising for the Principal Medical Officer of the Egyptian Army. For his services he was awarded the Order of the Nile 4th Class. Stallybrass retired from active service on 14 August 1922.
Following his retirement from the armed services, he read Law and became a Barrister of the Middle Temple in November 1925. After being called to the bar, he practised as a barrister in Vancouver. He returned to England and to medicine in 1927, accepting a post as Assistant Medical Officer to Dorset County Council. In 1934 he became the County Medical Officer. He retained that position throughout the war and only officially retired in 1946. Dr Stallybrass died on 27 March 1974.
