Henry Menzies (28 March 1867 – 7 March 1936) was an English first-class cricketer active 1891–93 who played for Middlesex.[1][2]

Cricket career

[edit]

Henry Menzies was born on 28 March 1867 in Lambeth, London.[1] He was a very good wicket-keeper who was unfortunate enough to be at Cambridge at the same time as Gregor McGregor, thus having no chance of getting his Blue.[1] A well-known Free Forester, he played five times for Middlesex in 1891–93, including in a County Championship match against Kent on 23 August 1893, which Middlesex lost by 12 runs.[1]

Death

[edit]

Menzies died in North Farnborough, Hampshire on 7 March 1936, at the age of 68.[1]
