George Frederick ("Fred") Grace (born 13 December 1850 in Bristol; died 22 September 1880 in Basingstoke, Hampshire) was the youngest of the three Grace brothers to play Test match cricket for England. Fred was an attractive batsman, but one who lacked the concentration and resolve to build a long innings. Grace was selected along with his two brothers WG and EM to play in the first Test in England in 1880. He was out for nought in both innings. Fred Grace later caught pneumonia and was dead within two weeks of the end of the Test.
