McGill graduate Harold Featherstonhaugh became an architect renowned for such Montreal landmarks as the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul and the Birks building which now houses the McGill Faculty of Religious Studies. He was a lieutenant in the Artillery Field Regiment before World War I; he then served in the 39th Battery during the war and was awarded the Military Cross in 1917. Earlier, he had worked with Edward and William Sutherland Maxwell, then in 1923 after the war, he became a partner in an architectural firm with J.C. McDougall; in 1934 he began working on his own until 1955.

Architect Noel I. Chipman attended McGill University when World War I intervened and he did not return to complete his studies there until 1920. He served with the Canadian Army Medical Corps as well as the Canadian Machine Gun Corps. Before the war he had articled with Alexander Dunlop in Montreal and had taken some courses in London in 1919. After working briefly for Fetherstonhaugh & McDougall in Montreal, then Huntley W. Davis and W.L. Bottomley in New York, then again in Montreal for Huntley W. Davis and for Samuel A. Finley, he finally opened his own Montreal office in 1927. He worked there, while living in Montreal and Como, Quebec, before retiring to Florida in 1963.

Civil Engineer Hugh Lumsden, having graduated from Trinity College School in Ontario in 1902, received a B.Sc. from McGill University in 1912. He enlisted in 1915 as a lieutenant with the Army’s 35th Battalion, transferred to the 19th and was sent to England where he was moved into the Overseas Railway Construction Corps in 1916. There he was appointed adjutant under Colonel C.W.P. Ramsay and given command of “C” Company with the rank of major in Canadian Railway Troops under Lieutenant Chilion L. (later Brigadier General) Hervey. When he returned to Canada in 1919, he worked for the Department of Soldiers’ Civil Re-establishment. That same year he was elected an associate member of the Institute of Civil Engineers in Great Britain. Later, in Orillia, Ontario, he was Assistant District Vocational Officer. He is the author of “Roads, Construction and Maintenance” published in 1938.
His date of death is not recorded, but when his brother died in 1973 he was still alive.
