John Gurney Hoare (7 May 1810 – 16 February 1875) was an English cricketer with amateur status, later a banker. BiographyHoare was born in Hampstead, north London, a son of Samuel Hoare (1783–1847), a partner in Bland, Barnett & Hoare, bankers (which after mergers and name changes was eventually taken over by Lloyds Bank[1][2]) and his wife Louisa. Hoare was the grandson of the Quaker Samuel Hoare, one of the twelve founding members of the Society for the Abolition of the Slave Trade. John Hoare was educated privately and at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he graduated as 20th Wrangler.[3] He became a partner in his father's bank and inherited Hill House, Hampstead. A plaque near the site of the house states that "he was the prime mover in the battle to save Hampstead Heath from development."[4] CricketWhile he was at Cambridge Hoare appeared in one first-class cricket match in 1831, playing for Cambridge University as a batsman of unknown handedness. His name was recorded incorrectly as James Gurney Hoare. He scored nine runs over both innings with a highest score of 7 not out.[5] FamilyOn 18 March 1837 at St Martin's church, Dorking, Surrey, Hoare married Caroline Barclay (1814–1878)[6][3], daughter of Charles Barclay (1780–1855) and Anna Maria Kett (1781–1840) of Cheapside, London. Hoare's eldest son Samuel became Sir Samuel Hoare, 1st Baronet.[7] Hoare died on 10 March 1875 in the Grand Hotel, Biarritz, France[8], and was buried there.
