Charles Coppinger
Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Use British English Charles Coppinger (10 April 1851 – 1 August 1877) was an English cricketer who played a single first-class cricket match for Kent County Cricket Club at the age of 19 in 1870.[1]
Coppinger was born in Bexleyheath in Kent in 1851, the son of Edward and Mildred Coppinger. His father was a publican and came from a cricketing family.[2][3] Coppinger played club cricket for sides such as New Cross and Woolwich and made his only first-class appearance for Kent against Surrey at The Oval in 1870, scoring 13 runs in his two innings.[2][4]
Like his father Coppinger also worked as a publican, first at Eltham and then at New Cross. He married Jane Hutchinson in 1874; the couple had one daughter who died as an infant. Coppinger himself died at New Cross in 1877 of rheumatic fever and acute meningitis aged 26.[2] Two of his brothers, Edward and William, and an uncle Septimus all played first-class cricket.[4]
