Lennox Stanislaus Kilgour (May 5, 1927 – 2004) was a weightlifter from Trinidad and Tobago. He became West Indian champion in 1949, Central American champion in 1950, and won a bronze medal at the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki.[1] He did not compete at world championships because they were held in Europe in those years, and the Trinidad and Tobago Weightlifting Association had insufficient finances to cover traveling costs.[2]
