About Hugh Massingberd

Hugh John Massingberd, originally Hugh John Montgomery and known from 1963 to 1992 as Hugh Montgomery-Massingberd, was an English journalist and genealogist. He began his career at Burke's Peerage/Burke's Landed Gentry, serving as its chief editor from 1971 to 1983. However, he was most revered for his subsequent work as obituaries editor for The Daily Telegraph of London from 1986 to 1994, where he is credited with inventing the modern British obituary, exchanging the dry recital of biographical data for a more stylish, sly, and witty narrative of the deceased person's life.
