Ralph Lumley was born in 1864 in Manchester, England, UK. He was a writer, known for In the Soup (1936). He was married to Florence Wood. He died on 27 May 1900 in Hyde Park, London, England, UK.
Ralph Robert Lumley was the father of Henry Ralph Lumley, who was an airman in WW1 whose plane tragically crashed on graduation day. The failure of Henry Ralph Lumley's surgery was a milestone in revolutionizing how surgeons grafted skin, especially for serious burns. Rather than attempting to graft large swaths of skin at a time, from then on, surgeons (including Harold Gillies) did grafts in stages instead.
