Edmund Hardinge

Sir Edmund Stracey Hardinge, 4th Baronet DL (27 March 1833 – 8 April 1924) was the fourth of the Hardinge baronets and a first-class cricketer who played a single match for Kent in 1861.[1] He was born at Bidborough, Kent and died at Kensington in London.

Hardinge's only first-class cricket match was for Kent against Sussex at Tunbridge Wells. He inherited the family baronetcy and widespread property interests from his brother in 1873; he was a magistrate in Kent.[2] At the time of his death in 1924, he lived in Kensington and his property interests were in Hertfordshire and at Ketton Hall in County Durham, where the Durham Ox had been bred a century earlier.

He married Evelyn Stuart Maberly, daughter of Major General Evan Maberley, and the couple had four children; she died in 1926.
