Ewart Chitty and John Barr were from the United Kingdom and both served on the Governing body at the same time as Ray Franz. But Ewart Chitty's history goes further, you can see his name down as Secretary-Treasurer of IBSA ALL the old yearbooks prior to 1976. The 1975 yearbook contains his name but it seems the following year John Barr took his place. Then after that, the officers of the legal corporations were no longer named in the yearbooks, only the names of the corporate publishers. Also Chitty was among the list of names of "ordained ministers appointed for special service" that appeared in the yearbook from the 1930s - mid 60s. It may be why yearbooks online and on the DVD don't go back before 1970. Perhaps Watchtower doesn't worry because they feel the average witness will not know who he was.

the actual charge brought to the gb against chitty was made by a former roommate and involved some sort of inappropriate conduct.

July 23, 1953:
Tuesday evening 120,509 oonventioners assembled at Yankee Stadium and Trailer City as E. C. Chitty, secretary and treasurer of the International Bible Students Association.
After Ewart Chitty, came T. J. Sullivan, one of the board of directors of the Watch Tower Society and for thirty years a member of the Brooklyn Bethel family. He dealt with service questions, all of which involved the matter of keeping the organization clean by cutting off, "disfellowshiping," those who have shown themselves unfit to be recognized as members of the New World society.
When gossiping is persisted in and causes friction and division it serves as basis for disfellowshiping. It is Scriptural to notify the Society, the circuit servant and congregations that may need such information of a person's being disfellowshiped, as disfellowshiping from one congregation is a cutting off from all congregations. Introducing this theme Ewart Chitty observed that this was not a matter of self-tentered character development.

“The holy spirit” appointed Nathan Knorr who demoted Leo Greenless boyfriend Percy Chapman to janitor when he found out that he was gay.
Percy Chapman (first in picture) with Watchtower charlatan Nathan Knorr, (third in picture).
“The holy spirit” also appiointed Ewart Chitty, a gay member of the governing body who preferred to be roomed with young men. (Not that there’s anything wrong with homosexuality, but it’s contrary to Jehovah’s Witness teachings).

Ewart Chitty was known by the brothers as one of the "three wise men" along with Pryce Hughes and Ewart Chitty and Edgar Clay because of the lead they took at Assemblies and Conventions during the 40s and 50s.

A 1981 Awake! article has Chitty making comments about people having lost their love of neighbor and God. Apparently by this time Chitty was drinking heavily, according to close acquaintances.

"On one occasion a large crowd was following a man who had a talking serpent. The serpent gave greetings and spoke in foreign tongues....a brother was passing by, attracted by the commotion, he went to the house to see what was happening. As soon as he entered the room the serpent stopped talking. The man cried out: "A magician has entered this room! He better leave or I will bring Evil upon him!" The brother asked the man: "Is that a serpent or a demon that has spoken?...I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses and I know since God has created animals not one serpent has spoken, with the exception of the garden of Eden...what you hear speaking is a Demon not a serpent." Offended and seeing that the serpent remained silent the man left the building...later the brother met the man and he was eager to get some publications..." -

"The information about this guy and the supposed things he did is weak."
Thus my investigation.

Apparently Chitty spent his final years in a "Jah Jireh" home. I had never even heard of such a thing.
