Frederick Bonham Burr (2 August 1887 - 12 March 1915) was an English cricketer who played a single first-class game, for Worcestershire against Oxford University in 1911. He made 39 and 7 not out, and caught Ronald Lagden in the first innings.
Burr was born in Blacklands, Hastings, Sussex. In World War I he joined the Worcestershire Regiment, and having attained the rank of Lieutenant he died in Belgium, at Kemmel, aged only 27 (although his gravestone erroneously gives his age as 28).[1]
