Cricket Team Members We are fortunate that some of the local cricket matches played in the 1800's were reported in the Essex Chronicle and the Essex Standard both of which have archives. The main organiser was Robert Page who lived at Downhall, Bradwell on Sea and not only maintained a cricket pitch at DownHall but took part in games in other villages. From these archives some of the local teams are listed below 1831 - Burnham Allerton - May - Sweeting - Rogers - Newman - Turner - Potter - W Page - Stevens - Shuttleworth - C Page 1846- Southminster C Hurley - W Clark - S Spurgin - I Cook - T Blanks - R Blanks - J Newman - J Rogers - T Rogers - Robert Page 1855 - Bradwell on Sea Tomlinson - Living - Robinson - Aitken - Dyke - Mason - Robert Page - Isted -Thackerey 1861 -Tillingham Jay - Small - C Bradwell - R Page - Gale - J Page - W Jackson - C Escott - W jackson - M Turner 1879- Bradwell on Sea C Escott - C Sewell - L Stokes - J Dixon - G Owen - G Stokes - J Pledger - F Leihenrood - W sewell - A Page - G Coombe 1884 - Bradwell on Sea L Stokes - H G Owen - F Leihenrood - W Hoather - J R B Owen - J G Owen - G Coombe - S W Jackson - E Woodgard 1887 - Burnham on Crouch A Disher - H Jago - H Fisher - J Halls - J Willet - W Cole - J Marshall - J Hawke - T Cole 1887 - Latchingdon C Formby - A Barbrook - W Brown - J Osborn - W A Carlick - A Wells - E E Wells- A Barnard - H Hills The Cricket History page tells the development of cricket in this area.
