Francis Findlay
Francis 'Frank' Findlay (4 February 1920 — 16 June 1963) was a Scottish first-class cricketer and rugby union player. Findlay was born in February 1920 at Rubislaw, Aberdeenshire. He was educated at Robert Gordon's College, before matriculating to the University of Aberdeen. A member of the Aberdeen University Officers' Training Corps, Findlay was injured during training at Aboyne in July 1939. A club cricketer for Aberdeenshire, Findlay made two appearances in first-class cricket for Scotland in 1948, against Warwickshire at Edgbaston, and Ireland at Glasgow. He scored 9 runs in his two matches. In addition to playing cricket, Findlay also played rugby union for Gordonians RFC. He was by profession a schoolteacher, securing a scholastic appointment in Anglo-Egyptian Sudan in 1950, which bought an end to his international cricket career. He had returned to Scotland by 1953 and resumed playing for Aberdeenshire. Findlay was killed in a car accident at Kilmarnock on 16 June 1963. His brother, Tom, was also a first-class cricketer.
