Thomas Bewley Madness to Mental Illness. A History of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. Online archive 34, Honorary Members and Fellows Online archive 34 Honorary Members and Fellows (with dates and places of all annual general meetings) The Association and College awarded Honorary Memberships (Association) and Honorary Fellowships (College). The first four Honorary Members were elected at the First Annual General Meeting in 1841. Those elected then and at subsequent AGMs had their names recorded in the (handwritten) minutes of the meetings (1841–1853). After 1854, with the regular production of the Journal, the election of all new Members and Honorary members were recorded each year at the Annual General Meeting. Unfortunately the names of some of these very early Honorary Members were not recorded in the later printed lists and some were elected a second time. The date and place of all Annual General Meetings are given with (after 1854) the volume and page number of the reports of the AGMs. Those who are recorded in the Dictionary of National Biography 2005 have this noted after their name (for example: William Tuke, DNB1 55(535–536).
