Charles Edwin Devenish (13 January 1874 – 11 January 1922) was a South African international rugby union player. Born in Victoria West, he first played provincial rugby for Griqualand West (now known as the Griquas). He made his only Test appearance for South Africa during Great Britain's 1896 tour. He played as a forward in the 2nd Test of the series, a 17–8 loss at the Wanderers.[1] Devenish died in 1922, in Kimberley, at the age of 47.[2]
