Charles Arthur Garnett (15 January 1840 – 3 September 1919) was an English first-class cricketer.

The son of Charles Garnett and his wife, Marianne Garnett (née Willock), he was born at Manchester in January 1840. [1] He was educated at both Eton College and Cheltenham College. He was in the cricket eleven at the latter. [2] [3] From Cheltenham he proceeded to Trinity College, Oxford. [4] While studying at Oxford he made his debut in first-class cricket for Oxford University against Cambridge University at Lord's in 1860, before making two further first-class appearances for Oxford in 1862 against the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) and Cambridge. [5] His 5 first-class wickets all came in one innings against the MCC. [6] He also made an additional first-class appearance in 1862 for the Gentlemen of the North against the Gentlemen of the South. [5] Garnett later emigrated to British Columbia, where he died at Duncan in September 1919. [3]
