Following Gaffy's findings, there seem to be lots of references to him in the newspapers as Cecil Selby Lowndes.

Yes, I think it's him, you just beat me to it with his marriage.

There are references to Cecil Selby Lowndes, C. Selby Lowndes and C.S Lowndes departing the UK for various parts of the globe between 1891 and 1901.

Saw those, then there's a gap, I'm thinking 1913 may have been their return after living for a while in South Africa (ie. after their marriage), can't yet see anything for him and her in the England or Wales (1911) census. His age in the 1913 manifest is promising.
