edward righton senior

edward grantham righton -lrb- 23 november 1884 -- 3 january 1964 -rrb- was an english cricketer who played four first-class matches for worcestershire between 1911 and 1913 .
although he had appeared for worcestershire 's second xi in the minor counties championship as early as 1907 , righton made his first-class debut in july 1911 , playing against leicestershire at worcester .
it proved to be by far the most successful of his four games at this level : righton hit a first-innings 48 and took his only first-class wicket , that of england test cricketer albert knight .
he did nothing in his three subsequent games , other than to hold a catch to dismiss thomas langdon in his final match , against gloucestershire in june 1913 .
his son edward -lrb- also , in fact , named edward grantham righton -rrb- also played four times for worcestershire , in the mid-1930s .
