MAUDE, SYBILLA EMILY (1862-1935), daughter of T. W. Maude (q.v.), was educated in Christchurch and Blackheath (London). After training as a nurse at Middlesex Hospital (1889-92), she was matron at Christchurch hospital. In 1896 she commenced district nursing, making her home at first with the Anglican sisters of the community of the Sacred Name. Assisted financially by Sir Heaton and Lady Rhodes, her association expanded considerably and was very successful. Miss Maude also inaugurated open-air camps for tuberculosis, the first at New Brighton and the second at Wainoni. She received the O.B.E. (1934), and died on 12 Jul 1935.
