Edward Newman Fuller

Edward Newman Fuller (1888–1969) was an English sportsman who played rugby union at an international level, touring Argentina with the 1910 Combined British rugby union side, an early incarnation of the British & Irish Lions.

Edward Newman Fuller was born on 25 September 1888, in Billericay, Essex, the youngest son of George (a member of the stock exchange) and Maria L Lee.

[1] Fuller played his rugby for his school's old boys club, Old Merchant Taylors' and was captain of the OMTFC in 1910-11 and 1911–12.

Although he was never selected to play rugby for England, he was selected to tour with the Combined British on the 1910 tour to Argentina where he played in what Argentina count as their first test match.

[1] On 21 March, at Jesmond Parish Church, the now Lieutenant-Colonel Edward Newman Fuller, R.F.C., was married to Dorothy Kate, the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Legg, of Paul's Dean, Salisbury.
