Robert Moore (9 January 1812 – 29 October 1857) was an English first-class cricketer and clergyman.
The son of The Reverend Robert Moore, he was born in January 1812 at Hunton, Kent. He was educated at Eton College,[1] before going up to Christ Church, Oxford.[2] While studying at Oxford, made three appearances in first-class cricket for Oxford University against the Marylebone Cricket Club in 1834 and 1835.[3] He scored 28 runs in these matches, in addition to taking eight wickets.[4] [5]
After graduating from Oxford, Moore took holy orders in the Church of England in 1858. He served as the rector of Wetheringsett until his death at Mayfair in October 1857.[1] [6]
