Howard Roderick Parkes (31 May 1877 – 28 May 1920) was an English cricketer and athlete.[1] A right-handed batsman,[2] he played first-class cricket for London County and Warwickshire.[3]
Career
Howard Parkes' first recorded senior match was for the Gentlemen of Surrey against the Gentlemen of Netherlands.[4] It was an unsuccessful debut, as he was bowled for a duck in each innings.[5] Two years later, he played for the Surrey Second XI against the Lancashire Second XI,[4] and in 1898 made his first-class debut for Warwickshire against Leicestershire.[6]
Between 1897 and 1900 he attended Oxford University. Whilst he did play in trial matches, he never played for the university cricket team, though he did represent them at hurdling.[7] He won the National Championship over 120 yards hurdles in 1898.[8] In 1900, he played a second match for the Surrey Second XI, against Glamorgan,[9] in addition to six first-class matches for London County,[6] also representing them against the West Indies.[4]
In November 1904, he played for Shanghai against the Straits Settlements in Hong Kong, opening the batting.[10]
He died in Dorset in 1920 from the effects of gas poisoning suffered whilst on active service in France with the Royal Garrison Artillery in World War I,[7] and was buried at Molesey Cemetery, West Molesey, Surrey.[11] His brother-in-law Tom Taylor played for Yorkshire between 1899 and 1906, playing 130 first-class matches in total.[12]
