George Edward Williams (13 August 1875 — 4 March 1952) was an English first-class cricketer.
Williams was born at Oxford in August 1875. He made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Hampshire against Somerset at Taunton.[1] Batting twice in the match, he was run out for 15 in Hampshire's first innings, while in their second he was run out for a single run.[2] He later played minor counties cricket for Berkshire in 1908 and 1909, making five appearances in the Minor Counties Championship.[3] Outside of cricket, Williams was the manager of the Aldershot Theatre.[4] He divorced his wife in 1906, following her adulterous affair with an Aldershot-based lieutenant.[5] Williams died at Southsea in March 1952.[6]
