William Hillhouse (19 November 1891 – 21 August 1968) was a Scottish footballer who played mainly as an outside left.[1] [2] The major event of his career was appearing in the 1920 Scottish Cup Final with Albion Rovers, scoring the second of his side's goals in a 3–2 defeat to Kilmarnock (his hometown club).[3] [4] [5] Hillhouse also played for Motherwell[6] – he was contracted there for six seasons but only played for them in the first two, possibly due to commitments relating to World War I – and Third Lanark, touring South America with the latter in the summer of 1923[7] [8] and appearing on the losing side in the Glasgow Cup final later that year.[9]
His younger brother Hugh spent three seasons with Queen's Park;[10] their cousin John, who grew up on the same street in Hurlford, was also a footballer.[1] [11]
