Edward Tappenden, who lived from 1876 to 1944, was a bowls player from England who competed at the British Empire Games. In 1937 he was selected for a tour of New Zealand and Australia that led up to the Empire Games, and at the 1938 British Empire Games in Sydney he represented England in the fours, or rink, event and finished in fifth place. By trade he was a private secretary and he lived in Wood Green and later in Hitchin. The English Wikipedia article about him is short, so this entry records only the tour, the Games result and the biographical outline that the article states.
