Henry Anthony (born 16 May 1873) was an English cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-pace bowler who played for Nottinghamshire. He was born in Old Basford.

Anthony made four first-class appearances between 1898 and 1902, in the Nottinghamshire lower-order, partnering players such as Charles Wright and John Gunn, both of whom would shortly become Test cricketers on account of their appearances with the team.

Anthony's brother, George and uncle Alfred also played first-class cricket, the brothers partnering each other in the lower order in Henry's final first-class game.

Famous quotes containing the word anthony:

    No genuine equality, no real freedom, no true manhood or womanhood can exist on any foundation save that of pecuniary independence. As a right over a man’s subsistence is a power over his moral being, so a right over a woman’s subsistence enslaves her will, degrades her pride and vitiates her whole moral nature.
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1907)
