Edward Franks Hodgson (28 August 1813 – 9 March 1882) was an English clergyman and a cricketer who played in first-class cricket matches for Cambridge University in 1835 and 1836.[1] He was born in Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire and died at Holton cum Beckering in Lincolnshire.
Hodgson's role as a cricketer is not clear: he both opened the batting and batted as low as No 10 in the batting order in his three first-class games, one of which was the 1836 University Match against Oxford University; there is no evidence that he bowled in important matches.[2] In six first-class innings, he scored just 18 runs.
