(1926 – )

Stuart Whitehead was a UK fan from Oldham in Lancashire active in the 1950s. We don't know much about him other than that there are references in Hyphen to him donating to TAFF and a profile in Andromeda #7 (December 1954):

I was weaned on Hotspurs, Magnets, and my Poppa’s old copies of Chums (wherein I developed an early taste for Sax Rohmer's Fu-Manchu stories!) . I read the E.R.B stories in the early teenage years.
...
Later on in the teens, I went to an optical college and studied the science of Optics and kindred subjects. Qualifying at 20½ years, I sat back from dreary old text-books and got clicking on the important things of life: ASF BRE, motor cycles and girls.'
About three years ago I became a fan: happy day!

It's possible that he is the person referred to as S. B. Whitehead in the membership list of Supermancon but his addresses is in a totally different part of the country.
