Lives in Cricket No 24 - Edgar Willsher

11 as the best wicketkeeper of his day, and both he and his brother William were born and brought up in Benenden, so Edgar had very local heroes to admire. A decade or so later, he would be playing with all these great players, first in club cricket and later for Kent itself. Origins Amhurst Place, Upper Fant Road, Maidstone, birthplace of John Edgar Willsher, Edgar and Sarah’s first child.
