Haddon, who was born in 1855, was appointed Professor of Zoology at the Royal College of Science in Dublin after obtaining a first in natural sciences at Cambridge. In 1889, he went to Torres Strait and became interested in recording native custom before it was affected by European contact. After his return to Britain, he accepted a part-time lectureship in physical anthropology at Cambridge, and in 1898 he organised the famous Cambridge University Expedition to Torres Strait, which brought him to Papua (then called British New Guinea). He became Reader in Ethnology at Cambridge in 1908 and remained there until his retirement in 1925. After his death, his numerous papers became part of Cambridge University Library.

Jai Ram Reddy (born on 12 May 1937 in Lautoka, Fiji) is an Indo-Fijian statesman who has had a distinguished career in both legislative and judicial branches of the Fijian government.
