Captain Sir Weldon Dalrymple-Champneys, Bt., C.B., was born in May 1892, the son of Sir Francis Henry Champneys, Bt., and completed his education at Oriel College, Oxford.

Opting for a career in the world of medicine at the end of the War, he went on to hold a number of important offices, among them a Fellowship of the Royal College of Physicians and Deputy Chief Medical Officer, Ministry of Health from 1940-56, these latter services resulting in the award of his C.B. Sir Weldon, who had assumed the additonal surname of 'Dalrymple' by deed poll back in 1924, succeeded to the Baronetcy in 1930 and died in December 1980.
