Frederick Hermann Bowden-Smith (21 April 1841 – 7 February 1919) was an English first-class cricketer and clergyman.
The son of The Reverend Philip Bowden-Smith and Emily Robertson, he was born in April 1841 at Brockenhurst, Hampshire.[1] He was educated at Rugby School,[2] before going up to Trinity College, Oxford. While studying at Oxford, Bowden-Smith made two appearances in first-class cricket for Oxford University in 1861, playing against the Marylebone Cricket Club and Cambridge University.[3] After graduating from Oxford, he became a Church of England clergyman. He held various curacies between 1864 - 75, before becoming the vicar of St Luke's, Southampton in 1875 and the rector of St Lawrence's Church, Weston Patrick in 1881. He died at Bournemouth in February 1919.[4]
