Biographical History
Ralph Heyward Isham was born in New York City on July 2, 1890. He attended Cornell University (1908), Yale College (1910-1911), and New York Law School. He served in the British army during World War I, and following the armistice in November of 1918 he was named head of an intelligence unit which investigated and suppressed Bolshevik activities among militiary personnel. For his army service he was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire, and retired at the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Isham returned to New York City and was associated with a number of business concerns including Trumbull Securities Corporation, of which he was president. His avid collecting of James Boswell papers resulted in the private publication of The Private Papers of James Boswell from Malahide Castle in the Collection of Lt.-Colonel Ralph Heyward Isham (1928-1934) in eighteen volumes. He died in New York City in 1955.
