 Mr Edwin Ward, Director of the Royal Scottish Museum, Edinburgh, died in a nursing home in Edinburgh yesterday. Born in Cheshire in 1880 Mr Ward was a son of Mr James Ward, author and artist. He was educated at Macclesfield Grammar School and Art School, and was afterwards a student of Art and Classical Archaeology in the University of Edinburgh. Over 30 years ago he was appointed an assistant in the Royal Scottish Museum, and just before the war Keeper of the Art and Ethnographical Department. In April 1931, he was appointed Director in succession to Mr A.O. Curle, CVO. Mr Ward proved an excellent director and one with an eye to increasing the popularity of the Museum.

Mr. Ward was appointed to the Art and Ethnographical Department of the Museum in 1901. For two seasons he excavated with Sir Flinders Petrie in Egypt, and later wrote a complete guide to the Egyptological collection of the Museum. Although his earliest and main interest was in Egyptology, his knowledge of armour, corns and pottery was extensive. [Nature]<br />
