Wadham Wyndham (army officer) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Wadham Wyndham (army officer)
Colonel Wadham Wyndham (1737–1812) was an English officer of the British Army and accomplished bon vivant. ==Background== The son of Henry Wyndham and Arundel Penruddocke, he was born at Dinton, Wiltshire, on 29 May 1737 at precisely 55 minutes past five in the morning. He was brought up in St Edmund's College, Salisbury, the house acquired by his great-grandfather Sir Wadham Wyndham, and seat of one of the city's, and indeed county's most influential families. His early appetite for constant and varied amusement is perfectly captured in the double portrait by Joseph Highmore of 1743, which portrays his brother Pen seeking to study while the young Wadham attempts to draw him into the garden tennis racket in hand. This exactly foretells the course in life for both brothers.
