G.A. Humphreys by profession an architect and surveyor and Chief Agent of the Mostyn Estates, he remained withal throughout his life an avid student of local history, and was one of the founder members of the Llandudno and District Field Club to whose Proceedings he contributed several valuable articles and papers.
On the history and antiquities of Llandudno and Creuddyn he was an acknowledged expert, and the material which he so patiently garnered into the portfolios - particularly the rare series of photographs of Old Llandudno - is an eloquent and abiding testimony to the thoroughness with which he pursued his subject.
