THOBY STEPHEN
'Thoby Stephen' (1880 - 1906), known as ''the Goth'', was a member of the Bloomsbury Group, as were his sisters Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf and his younger brother Adrian.
He was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, and a friend of Lytton Strachey, who was enchanted by his masculinity and introduced him to the 'Reading Club'. He was "over six feet tall and of somewhat ponderous build."
Expected to distingush himself, he died at the age of 26 while on holiday in Greece, from what turned out to be typhoid not pneumonia.
