Archibald Williamson

Archibald Carmichael Williamson (11 November 1892 – 17 September 1972) was an Argentine-born English first-class cricketer.

Williamson was born in the Anglo-Argentine neighbourhood of Hurlingham in Buenos Aires. He moved to United Kingdom as a child, where he was educated in Edinburgh at Fettes College. From there he went up to Brasenose College, Oxford. Batting twice during the match, Williamson was dismissed for 8 runs by William Benskin, while in their second-innings he was dismissed for 10 runs by Robert Sievwright. He also played minor counties cricket for Cheshire in the same year, making one appearance against Lincolnshire.

At the start of the First World War, Williamson was enlisted in the Royal Garrison Artillery in August 1914 as a second lieutenant, but his appointment was cancelled in the same month. He instead enlisted with the Royal Navy in September 1914 as a sub-lieutenant. Williamson died at Highcroft Hospital in Birmingham in September 1972, with his death notice listing his profession as a retired schoolmaster.
