Henry James Tattersall (21 December 1892 – 5 November 1971) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played six matches of first-class cricket for Auckland and Wellington between 1913 and 1928.[1][2] He toured Australia with the New Zealand team in 1913-14 as the second wicket-keeper, but did not play in any of the four first-class matches against state teams.[3]

Before World War I he worked as an engineer in an Auckland foundry.[4] During the war he served overseas in the New Zealand Expeditionary Force as a sergeant.[5]

After the war he settled on 557 acres at Akitio which he had been granted after a ballot under the Discharged Soldiers Settlement Act.[6] In April 1921 he married Muriel Childs. They had a son in 1922 but separated soon afterwards and divorced in 1927.[7][8] He moved to Wellington.[9]
