Gilbert de Lacy Lacy (26 February 1834 – 7 June 1878) was an English first-class cricketer.
A member of the de Lacy family, Lacy was born to Charles de Lacy Lacy at Tring in February 1826. He was educated at Westminster School,[1] before going up to Magdalen College, Oxford.[2] He made his debut in first-class cricket for the Marylebone Cricket Club against Oxford University at Oxford in 1854, following this up with a second first-class appearance for the Gentlemen of England against the Gentlemen of Kent in the same year at Canterbury.[3] At some point after this he left England for Cape Colony, where he died at Mount Frere in June 1878.
