James Edward Lee (23 March 1838 – 2 April 1880) was an English first-class cricketer, who played two matches for Yorkshire County Cricket Club in 1867.[1] These were against Lancashire in the Roses Match at the Station Road Ground, Whalley, and versus Cambridgeshire in Dewsbury.
Born in Soothill, Dewsbury, Yorkshire, England, Lee scored a duck in his only innings in the Roses clash, as Yorkshire won by an innings. Lee scored 6 and 3 against Cambridgeshire in a low scoring match, which was won by Yorkshire by four wickets. Those were the only runs he scored in first-class cricket, and he did not bowl or take a catch.[1]
He died in April 1880, aged 42, in Earlsheaton, Dewsbury.
