Henry William Hoare (1 April 1844 – 7 September 1931) was an English scholar and sportman.
He played first-class cricket for Oxford University and other amateur teams in the 1860s.
He was the son of the cleric William Henry Hoare, of Oakfield, Crawley, Sussex, and his wife Araminta Anne Hamilton (died 1888), daughter of Sir John Hamilton, 1st Baronet, of Woodbrook.
Like his brother, who did it in 1882, Henry Hoare changed his surname to "Hamilton-Hoare" in 1908 in order to benefit from a Hamilton inheritance from the family of his mother.
[4] Besides cricket he was also an athlete, winning hurdles races in the Balliol sports, and later he was a fencer, golfer and angler.
