From Wikipedia:
Lyndhurst Winslow was an English cricketer. Winslow was a right-handed batsman. The son of evangelical preacher Octavius Winslow and Hannah Ann Ring, he was born at Leamington, Warwickshire. He made his first-class debut for Sussex against Gloucestershire in 1875 at the County Ground, Hove. He scored a century in his maiden innings, making 124 runs.
His second first-class appearance came shortly after this match, for the Marylebone Cricket Club against Cambridge University at Lords. Immediately following this match, he made two first-class appearances in quick succession, for the Gentlemen of the South against the Players of the South at The Oval, and for the South against the North at Trent Bridge.
Winslow made four further first-class appearances in 1875, all for Sussex, with his final appearance coming against Gloucestershire at the College Ground, Cheltenham. In total, Winslow made eight first-class appearances, scoring 337 runs at an average of 30.63.
He later emigrated to South Africa. In 1891 he was runner-up at the inaugural South African Championships tennis tournament in Port Elizabeth. His son, Charles, was a three-time Olympic tennis medalist. He won two gold medals, one each in the men’s singles and men’s doubles (with Harold Kitson) during the outdoor tennis events at the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm. Eight years later, in Antwerp, he won a bronze medal in the men’s singles event.
Charles son and Lyndhurst’s grandson, Paul, would play Test cricket for South Africa. Winslow’s brother, Octavius Evans Winslow, was also a first-class cricketer. Lyndhurst Winslow died in Johannesburg on 6 February 1915.
