The son of the cricketer and brewer George Hoare, he was born at Morden in September 1812. He was educated at Harrow School,[1] before going up to St John's College, Cambridge. After graduating from Cambridge, Hoare became a partner in the family brewing business.[2] He later played first-class cricket for the Marylebone Cricket Club between 1835 and 1838, making six appearances.[3] He scored 98 runs in these matches, with a highest score of 37 not out.[4] He married Julia Seymour Traherne in 1849, having issue.[2] Hoare died at Torquay in February 1859 and was buried at Morden.[2] His son, Charles, was also a first-class cricketer, as was his brother Charles Hugh Hoare.
