Personal life and clerical career
One of five brothers who became clergymen, Henry Blamires was born in Bendigo, Australia, and educated at Wesley College in Melbourne, which was then a Methodist school for boys. He was ordained in 1900[1] and appointed minister to the Wesleyan church in Hamilton, New Zealand.[2] He served as minister in Gore from 1903.[3] He served as a chaplain with the New Zealand forces in World War I.[4]
He married Jane Collier, a teacher of the blind, in Auckland in March 1900.[5] They had three children.[6]
Cricket career
Blamires played three first-class matches for Hawke's Bay. In his first match, aged 40, against Wellington, he made 55 not out in the second innings. His brother Ernest made his first-class debut in the same match, playing for Wellington.[7] In his next match the next season, also against Wellington, he made 37 in the first innings before being bowled by Clarrie Grimmett.[8] Two weeks later he captained Hawke's Bay against the touring Australians, but was dismissed cheaply twice by Arthur Mailey. It was Blamires's last first-class match.
He continued to play cricket for many years. He played Hawke Cup matches in the 1920s for Wanganui, Nelson and Wairarapa,[9] for whom in his last match at the age of 57 he top-scored with 56.[10]
