MR CHARLES TINDAL GATTY, F.S.A. Antiquary,author, and lecturer, died, on the
8th June, in a London Nursing Home...
Mr Gatty who was 77, was a convert. He was the son of the Rev. Alfred Gatty, D.D. vicar of Ecclesfield; his mother was the daughter of the Rev. Dr Scott. Educated at the Charterhouse school, he later obtained the post of Curator at the Liverpool Museum, where he laboured for 12 years, he was next, for two years, private secretary to the convert Marquis of Bute; and in 1891 he took up the editorship of a paper started by Lord Wolverton at Yeovil.
Mr Gatty made an unsuccessful attempt, in 1892 to enter parliament as Home Rule candidate for West Dorset, and later he held a secretarial appointment under the Chief Ministerial Whip, Mr Ellis.
1n 1903 he went to Dublin where he was a chief figure in promoting Irish art. He later returned to England.
Mr Gatty both lectured and wrote on behalf of his adoption, and was well known also by several writings on history and biography, and by his joint editorship with the late Duke of Norfolk, in the compilation of Arundel Hymns.....
...A study on the historical side, with many biographical notes also brought the elaborate account, in two volumes, of Mary Davies and the Manor of Ebury, considered by many as Mr Gatty's best and most interesting work. This book was written from a mass of material discovered among unsorted muniments at Eaton Hall, and is valuable contribution to the history of West London.
The funeral took place on Tuesday last at Eccleston, near Chester. On the previous day a requiem Mass was celebrated in London at St Jamees, Spanish Place. R.I.P.
