Early lifeRyburn was born in Invercargill on 6 February 1910. Her father was Reverend Francis Wallace Dunlop and her grandfather was Professor of Theology at Otago University. In 1913, Ryburn's father was appointed professor of philosophy at Otago, and the family moved to Dunedin. There Ryburn attended Archerfield College, followed by the Otago School of Art. Ryburn met Hubert James Ryburn at St. Andrew's Church, Dunedin, and they were married at Knox Church on 24 March 1931.[1][3] Adult lifeRyburn's husband was appointed master of Knox College in 1941, and the couple lived there while raising their four children. Ryburn helped establish the Plunket Society in Opoho and the North-East Valley suburbs, and was the first chairwoman of the branch. In 1953 she was elected to the New Zealand Plunket Council and in 1957 became president. She held this position until 1970.[1] One of her campaigns during her presidency was for increased government subsidies for Plunket nurses' salaries. As part of this campaign, Ryburn sat on a joint steering committee with representatives of the Department of Health to investigate whether mothers in new housing areas had access to appropriate health services for their babies.[2] From 1963 until 1974 Ryburn was warden of St. Margaret's College. She also served on the Board of Governors of Columba College.[3] Ryburn died on 5 April 1980 following an accidental fall.[1][3] References1. ^1 2 3 {{Cite book|title=Southern People: A Dictionary of Otago Southland Biography|last=Thomson|first=Jane (ed.)|publisher=Longacre Press|year=1989|isbn=1 877135 11 9|location=Dunedin, New Zealand|pages=437–438}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Ryburn, Jocelyn}}2. ^{{Cite book|title=A Voice for Mothers: The Plunket Society and Infant Welfare 1907-2000|last=Bryder|first=Linda|publisher=Auckland University Press|year=2013|isbn=|location=Auckland, New Zealand|pages=}} 3. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=http://www.teara.govt.nz/en/biographies/5r33/ryburn-hubert-james|title=Ryburn, Hubert James|last=Taonga|first=New Zealand Ministry for Culture and Heritage Te Manatu|website=www.teara.govt.nz|language=en|access-date=2016-05-30}} 4 : 20th-century New Zealand people|1910 births|1980 deaths|People from Invercargill |
