Proposed for Fellowship of RIBA by James O'Hanlon Hughes in 1931 and by Robert Sharp in 1936. Is mentioned in "Directory of British Architects 1834-1914" (from Google books I think this is "Egan, Stephen Huntley, 1862-1941 Address: 28 Hugo Road, Tufnell Park, London N, England (1896) St Awdry's, Hendon, London NW (1914)......"
He himself proposed Robert Sharp http://www.scottisharchitects.org.uk/architect_full.php?id=202940 for membership in 1936.
