Cecil Marcus Knatchbull-Hugessen, 4th Baron Brabourne (27 November 1863 – 15 February 1933) was an English cricketer, and later a British peer. Knatchbull-Hugessen was born in Lowndes Square in Chelsea, the fourth child and second son of Edward Knatchbull-Hugessen, 1st Baron Brabourne and his first wife, Anna Maria Elizabeth Southwell. He was educated at Eton College where he was in the cricket XI from 1881 to 1883.[1][2][3] He went up to King's College, Cambridge with a scholarship and won the Pitt Scholarship, graduating with a first class degree in Classics in 1886.[1] He was considered to be an "accomplished scholar", was "highly distinguished for the Chancellor's medal" in 1887 and considered "an extraordinarily good modern linguist".[1] He published The Political Evolution the Hungarian Nation in 1908, a text which became "a standard work on the subject".[1] A right-handed batsman and wicket-keeper, he made a total of 12 first-class cricket appearances between 1884 and 1886, primarily for the University side. He won a blue in 1886 and also played once for Kent County Cricket Club in 1884.[3][4] After graduating, Knatchbull-Hugessen spent a year as a teacher at Eton before training as a barrister, being called to the bar in 1890.[1] He married Helena Regina Frederica Flesch von Brunningen, daughter of the Austrian nobleman Hermann Flesch Edler von Brunningen, on 8 November 1893. He succeeded to the title Baron Brabourne in 1915, following the death of his nephew Wyndham Knatchbull-Hugessen. Knatchbull-Hugessen also inherited the Knatchbull Baronetcy, of Mersham Hatch, after the death of another cousin, Sir Wyndham Knatchbull, 12th Baronet, in 1917.[1] Knatchbull-Hugessen was a director and later the chairman of the Consolidated Gold Fields of South Africa and was primarily a businessman.[1] He died while journeying from Cape Town, where he had business interests, to London aboard the SS Caernarvon Castle in February 1933 aged 69.[3][5] He was buried at sea, but is commemorated with a tablet in the churchyard of St Mary the Virgin at Smeeth in Kent.[6] Styles of address
