Charles Henry Yaldren (8 December 1891 — 23 October 1916) was an English first-class cricketer and soldier.
The son of Charles Henry Yaldren senior, he was born at Southampton in December 1891.[1] He made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Hampshire against Cambridge University at Southampton in 1912.[2] Described as a "useful bowler and tail-end bat", he was run out for 8 runs in his only first-class innings, while with his bowling he took one wicket in the match, that of Geoffrey Hopley.[3] Yaldren served in the First World War as a private in the 1st Battalion, Royal Hampshire Regiment. He was killed in action at Thiepval on 23 October 1916, during the First Battle of the Somme.[1] His body was never recovered, but he is commemorated at the Thiepval Memorial.[4]
