Wilfred Trubshaw

Wilfred Trubshaw CBE (died 21 December 1944) was an English solicitor and police officer who served as Chief Constable of Lancashire County Constabulary from 1927 to 1935.

Trubshaw came from a wealthy Staffordshire family. He was Assistant Solicitor to Lancashire County Council until 1915, when he joined Lancashire County Constabulary as Deputy Chief Constable. He was promoted to Assistant Chief Constable [Lancashire appears to have reversed the positions usually held by ACC and DCC.] in 1917 and was appointed Chief Constable on 5 May 1927. He retired on 31 August 1935 due to problems with his eyesight.

Trubshaw was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 1920 civilian war honours and promoted to Commander (CBE) in the 1931 Birthday Honours.
