Biography
John Greenwood (24 July 1800, Tunbridge Wells – 12 February 1871, Pimlico) was an English lawyer and cricketer, who played cricket for Cambridge University.
John Greenwood was educated at Eton and Jesus College, Cambridge. He made two first-class appearances for the university cricket team between 1820 and 1821, scoring just two runs in three innings, including two ducks. Gaining a BA as 13th Wrangler in 1822, he became a Fellow of Jesus and was called to the Bar from Lincoln's Inn in 1828. He later entered the Middle Temple, where he became a Bencher. He was Assistant Solicitor to the Treasury from 1851 to 1866, and Solicitor to the Treasury from 1866 until his death.
