1954 Obituary [1]
IT is with regret that we have to record the death of Mr. Joseph Maudslay at the age of seventy-four years on Friday last.
Like his father, Herbert Charles Maudslay, he was an engineer, and following his education at the Isle of Wight College he qualified as an engineer and entered the service of the Egyptian Government in 1903.
He served in the 1914-18 war and after returning to Egyptian service he was appointed assistant general manager to the Egyptian State Railway in 1921, a post from which he retired three years later.
During the last war Mr. Maudslay was employed by the Ministry of Supply and was commandant of the depot at Pontrilas, Herts, until 1945. He was elected president of the Maudslay Society in 1945.
