James Richard Robertson (18 June 1844 – 6 August 1877) was an English first-class cricketer.
The son of the cricketer John Robertson, he was born at Hollingbourne in June 1844.[1] He was educated at Cheltenham College, before going up to St John's College, Cambridge.[1] [2] Although Robertson did not play first-class cricket for Cambridge University, he did feature in two first-class matches during his studies at Cambridge for the Gentlemen of Kent against the Gentlemen of Marylebone Cricket Club at Canterbury in 1863 and 1864,[3] scoring 39 runs and bowling 18 wicketless overs across the match.[4] [5] Robertson later emigrated to New South Wales,[1] where he was resident at Wooyeo, on the Lachlan, northwest of Lake Cargelligo. He later returned to England, where he died at Folkestone in August 1877.[6]
