Macnamara was born at Dublin in June 1893 to Richard and Mary Macnamara, with Richard being a prominent solicitor. He was one of six children.[1] He was sent to England for his education, where he attended The Oratory School, one of England's leading Catholic schools.[2] From there, he went up to New College, Oxford.[1] He played cricket for his college, but was not selected to represent Oxford University Cricket Club.[2] He did however play football for Oxford University, which earned him a half blue.[2] During the summer break, Macnamara would return to Ireland, where he played club cricket for Leinster.[1] He made one appearance in first-class cricket for Ireland against Scotland at Edinburgh in 1913.[3] Batting twice in the match, Macnamara scored 30 runs in Ireland's first-innings, before being dismissed by Lovat Fraser, while in their second-innings he ended unbeaten on 24.[4] He also bowled 13 wicket-less overs across both Scotland innings.[4] He graduated from New College in 1914, with a fourth-class degree in history.[2] Macnamara served in the British Army during World War I, enlisting with the Royal Dublin Fusiliers as a Second Lieutenant (on probation) in August 1915.[5] He had some previous military experience when he was a member of the Officers' Training Corps at Oxford University.[2] He was confirmed in the rank of Second Lieutenant in April 1916.[6] He was killed in action during the Battle of the Somme on 18 August 1916, while defending a salient near Loos-en-Gohelle.[2] He is buried at the Philisophe British Cemetery at Mazingarbe.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=https://www.cricketeurope.com/IRELAND/PLAYERS/290/index.shtml |title=Player profile: George Frederick Macnamara |publisher=CricketEurope |accessdate=2018-11-03}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Macnamara, George}}2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite book|last=McCrery|first=Nigel|title=Final Wicket: Test and First Class Cricketers Killed in the Great War|url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=6mphCgAAQBAJ&pg=PA258&lpg=PA258&dq=George+Frederick+Macnamara&source=bl&ots=HN5evYOSIZ&sig=VYFrpeV3edpj0LXxRGj_HvShnaw&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwipx8601bjeAhVlDsAKHYWDAjAQ6AEwAnoECAIQAQ#v=onepage&q=George%20Frederick%20Macnamara&f=false|date=30 July 2015|publisher=Pen and Sword|isbn=1473864194|page=258}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/1547/1547191/First-Class_Matches.html |title=First-Class Matches played by George Macnamara |publisher=CricketArchive |accessdate=2018-11-03}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/9/9083.html |title=Scotland v Ireland, 1913 |publisher=CricketArchive |accessdate=2018-11-03}} 5. ^{{London Gazette |issue=29262|date=13 August 1915|page=8027}} 6. ^{{London Gazette |issue=29537|date=4 April 1916|page=3686|supplement=y}} 11 : 1893 births|1916 deaths|People from Dublin (city)|People educated at The Oratory School|Alumni of New College, Oxford|Oxford University A.F.C. players|Irish cricketers|British Army personnel of World War I|Royal Dublin Fusiliers officers|British military personnel killed in World War I|Association footballers not categorized by position |
