Henry Anthony (16 May 1873[1] or 20 September 1876[2] – 13 July 1928)[2] was an English first-class cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-pace bowler who played for Nottinghamshire.[1] [2] He was born in either Old Basford[1] or Arnold, Nottinghamshire.[2]

Anthony made four first-class appearances between 1898 and 1902, in the Nottinghamshire lower-order. Anthony's brother, George and uncle Alfred also played first-class cricket, the brothers partnering each other in the lower order in Henry's final first-class game.[1] Their brother Walter Anthony won a football championship medal with Blackburn Rovers in 1912.
