Biography
George Edward Downs (25 July 1856 – 2 April 1936 at Adelaide, South Australia) was a cricket Test match umpire.
He umpired one Test match between Australia and England in Adelaide on 24 March to 28 March 1892, standing with Bill Whitridge, also in his only Test match. England won easily by an innings and 230 runs – the largest victory margin to that date – in Jack Blackham’s last match.
