William Green (cricketer, born 1834)
William James Green (1834 – 11 January 1876) was an English cricketer who played in three first-class cricket matches for Kent County Cricket Club between 1856 and 1861. He was born at Gravesend in Kent in 1834, the son of William and Rebecca Green (née King).

Green played club cricket for Gravesend Cricket Club regularly and made his debut for Kent against Sussex in 1856. He made two further first-class appearances for the county, in 1859 against a Middlesex side and in 1861 against Cambridgeshire. In first-class matches he scored a total of 17 runs, with the 12 he scored in his second innings on debut his highest score.  He played in a Kent trial match in 1860 and in 1865 played for the Players of Kent against the Gentlemen of Kent in a match at the Bat and Ball Ground in Gravesend, scoring 23 runs and taking a wicket for his side.

A house painter by trade, Green married and had three children with his wife Henrietta. He died at Gravesend in 1876 aged 41.
