Captain Harry Willes Darell de Windt FRGS served as aide-de-camp to his brother-in-law Charles Brooke, Rajah of Sarawak (Harry's sister Margaret was Brooke's wife), and is best known as an explorer and travel writer. His writings were published under the name Harry de Windt. Harry de Windt was the son of Captain Joseph Clayton Jennyns de Windt of Blunsdon Hall, near Swindon and Highworth in Wiltshire, England. He was admitted to Magdalene College, Cambridge, in 1875, but did not pursue a degree, instead traveling with his brother-in-law from 1876-1878. His first wife was Frances Laura Arabella Long, sister of the 1st Viscount Long of Wraxall, whom he married in London in 1882. They got divorced in 1888. This union produced one child, a daughter named Margaret Maude. Harry married Hilda Frances E Clark, daughter of the Reverend Professor William Robinson Clark, in 1899; she died in 1924. In 1927, Harry married the actress Charlotte Elizabeth Ihle, also known as Elaine Inescourt.
