Daniel Dioneys Geere (1814 – 1868) was an English cricketer. Geere's batting style is unknown. He was born at Stoke Poges, Buckinghamshire.
Geere made two first-class appearances for Sussex in 1840, both against Nottinghamshire.[1] In the first match at the Royal New Ground, Brighton, Geere was dismissed for 2 runs in Sussex's innings of 225 by Thomas Barker. Nottinghamshire were dismissed for 104 in response and were forced to follow-on, making just 62 in their second-innings to give Sussex an innings and 59 run victory.[2] In the return match at Trent Bridge, Sussex made 115 in their first-innings, with Geere being dismissed for a duck by Barker. Nottinghamshire made 85 in their first-innings, while Sussex could only manage to make 73 in their second-innings, with Geere ending the innings not out on 3. Nottinghamshire's target in their second-innings was 104, but they could only make 89 to hand Sussex a 14 run victory.[3]
His death was registered at Lewes in Sussex in the third quarter of 1868, with stated age being 53. His second name is spelled as "Diones" on the certificate.
