William May (date of birth unknown - 5 August 1888) was an English cricketer. May's batting style is unknown. He was christened at Linton, Kent on 20 April 1808.[1]
May made a single first-class appearance for Kent against England at the West Kent Cricket Club Ground in 1834.[2] May was dismissed by Tom Marsden for 3 runs in Kent's first-innings total of 127. In response England made 130, while in Kent's second-innings he was dismissed for 3 runs by William Lillywhite, with Kent making just 35 runs. This left England with a target of 33, which was chased down for the loss of just one wicket.[3] This was his only major appearance for Kent.
