Thomas Rolph

Thomas Lawford Rolph (13 February 1840 – 5 September 1876) was a Canadian-born lawyer and a cricketer who played in a single first-class cricket match for Cambridge University in 1860. He was born in Dundas, Canada, and died at Gloucester in England.

The elder son of the Canadian politician George Rolph, Thomas Rolph was educated in England at Cheltenham College and at Trinity Hall, Cambridge. He played cricket as a middle-order batsman for his school, but when selected for a single match for Cambridge University against the Cambridge Town Club he failed to score in either innings and was not picked again. He played a few minor cricket matches for amateur sides both during his time at Cambridge and afterwards, but played no more first-class cricket.

He died in Barnwood, Gloucestershire on 5 September 1876, aged 36.

His brother-in-law Alfred Renshaw played first-class cricket for the Marylebone Cricket Club in 1871.
