The Ronald Megaw Memorial Prize was a Presentation Sword and its accoutrements as well as selected books or instruments awarded annually to the Sub-Lieutenant who obtained the highest place during the preceding year in the various examinations prescribed for Officers qualifying for the rank of Lieutenant.

It was founded in 1906 in memory of Midshipman Ronald Megaw, who was killed accidentally on 11 November, 1904 while at General Quarters on board H.M.S. Montagu.

The prize was underwritten by interest on a sum of £1,000, given by Megaw's Father and held upon trust by the Admiralty.

Recipients

The recipients are denoted in Navy Lists by a [M] after their name in the seniority lists.

No prizes were awarded for some time after 1914-15. In 1920, it was decided that more prizes should be awarded to dispense with accumulated interest on the funding.[1]
