Peter Ingram (cricketer, born 1869)

Peter Robert Ingram (21 February 1869 - 8 December 1955(1955-12-08) (aged 86)) played first-class cricket for Somerset in two matches in 1910.[1] He was born near Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, Scotland and died at Perranporth, Cornwall.

Ingram was a lower order left-handed batsman and a slow left-arm orthodox spin bowler. At the age of 41, he played in two matches inside a week for Somerset and failed to take a wicket in either of them; both matches were lost within two days. In his first match, however, he caught Frank Woolley when the Kent batsman had made 99.[2] And in the second he scored seven runs in each innings and these were jointly his highest first-class innings.[3]
