In 1911 Henry Howard Humphreys took one of his sons, Cecil Lee Howard Humphreys (1893 - 1941), into the firm and his second son, Guy Howard Humphreys (1896 - 1951), in 1918. In 1930, upon his father's death, Cecil Lee Howard Humphreys succeeded as senior partner to the firm. With his brother - Guy - he authored a book entitled *The Training of a Civil Engineer* (1932).
