History of the Old Felstedian Society

On 14 September 1900 a meeting of Old Felstedians was held at Anderton's Hotel, Fleet Street in London, at which it was decided to form a Society to which past pupils and others connected with Felsted School could belong.

A further meeting was held on 14 December of the same year, at which a Committee was appointed and rules made. General Sir A. Gaselee, GCB, GCIE, was invited to be the first president of the Society and his acceptance was announced at the first General Meeting, held on Whit Sunday in 1901. General Gaselee continued as President until his death in 1918. The first Secretary was E.T. Roberts.

In February 1901, the first edition of 'The Old Felstedian' magazine was published, and each year since that date (except 1909) the magazine has been sent to members.
