Biography
Captain (later Colonel) Henry Hervey Aston (1759 – 1798) was an English cricketer who played for the Hambledon Club. He was at different times a member of both the Hambledon Club and the MCC. A useful batsman, Aston made 13 known first-class appearances from 1786 to 1793 when his military duties took precedence.
In December 1793, Aston obtained a Lieutenant-colonelcy in the 12th Foot and afterwards went to Madras where in 1798 he fought a duel with Major Picton. Both fired into the air. Next day, in another duel, he was wounded by a new adversary, Major Allen, and after languishing about a week, he died on 23 December 1798.
