About Thomas Henderson

Lived 1875 – 1920 (aged 45). Thomas Henderson was a cricketer.

Thomas Bonhôte Henderson (3 January 1875 – 19 April 1920) was an English first-class cricketer and surgeon.

The son of John Henderson, he was born at Paddington in January 1875. He was educated at Winchester College, before going up to Trinity College, Oxford. While studying at Oxford, he played first-class cricket for Oxford University in 1897, making five appearances. In addition to playing for the university, he also appeared in one first-class match for an Oxford University Past and Present team against the touring Gentlemen of Philadelphia in the same year. Henderson later played two first-class matches for the Marylebone Cricket Club against Cambridge University in 1899 and Oxford University in 1901. He was described as a “free and stylish batsman, a fast bowler and a keen fieldsman” by the Wisden Cricketers' Almanack.

After graduating from Oxford in 1901 with a bachelor in medicine, Henderson died in April 1920 at Harnham, Wiltshire. His brother was the athlete Walter Henderson.
