Zacharias or Zachariah Carr (15 October 1867 – 1951) was an English professional footballer who played as a defender. He played for Preston Hornets before joining Football League side Burnley in April 1890.[3] He could not displace regular left-back Sandy Lang from the starting line-up, and subsequently played his only match for the club on 11 October 1890 in the 1–2 loss to Bolton Wanderers at Turf Moor, and left Burnley shortly afterwards.[4]
