Thomas Myres
Thomas Harrison Myres FRIBA (1842 – 3 December 1926) was an English railway architect who designed stations and ancillary buildings for the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway lines that were opened between 1880 and 1883, including several on what is now the Bluebell Railway. He was the son-in-law of the railway company's chief engineer, Frederick Banister. Although most of the lines for which Myres designed the buildings have been closed, many of his buildings survive as private residences. Several of the buildings designed by him are listed buildings, including the goods shed at Singleton in West Sussex which was declared Grade II in April 2013.
==Personal and early life==
Myres was born in Preston, Lancashire, the third son of John James Myres (1811–1881) and Margaret Harrison (1812–1875). His brothers included William Miles Myres (1838–1901), who became Vicar of St Swithun's Church at Swanbourne in Buckinghamshire and was the father of John Linton Myres (1869–1954), the archaeologist who was the first Wykeham Professor of Ancient History at the University of Oxford. Myres was baptised at St John's Church, Preston on 5 August 1842.
John James Myres was one of the founders of the civil engineering and architectural practice of Myres and Newton, based in Preston, who was appointed Mayor of Preston in 1868 and again in 1873. Between about 1838 and 1844, Frederick Banister was articled to the practice before becoming a railway engineer on the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway. Banister subsequently moved to southern England where in 1860 he became chief engineer to the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway (LB&SCR).
Following his appointment as chief engineer to LB&SCR, Banister agreed to take Thomas Harrison Myres as a trainee, with Myres moving to the south to lodge with Banister. In 1871, Myres married Banister's daughter, Katharine Mary Banister (born 1848), then living in Deptford. The couple had three children: Eleanor Annie (born 1873), Frederick Edmund (born 1875) and Katharine Dorothea (born 1880).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://records.ancestry.com/Thomas_Harrison_Myres_records.ashx?pid=57433846 )〕 Frederick became an architect and a member of the family firm. Thomas's wife Katharine died at Preston on 1 August 1923.
