Henry Taswell (28 July 1830 – 12 July 1874) was an English first-class cricketer.
The son of George Morris Taswell, he was born in July 1830 at Canterbury. He was educated at Rugby School,[1] before going up to Christ Church, Oxford.[2] While studying at Oxford, he made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Oxford University against Cambridge University in The University Match at Lord's in 1851.[3] Batting twice in the match, he ended the Oxford first innings unbeaten on a single run, while following-on in their second innings he was dismissed for 13 runs by Charles Pontifex.[4] He later emigrated to Canada, where he died at Sherbrooke in July 1874.[1] His brother, Edward, was also a first-class cricketer.
