William Molteno “Bill” Bisset (11 September 1867 – 23 February 1958) was a South African international rugby union player.
He was born in Kenilworth, Cape Town, the second son of Wynberg Mayor James Bisset and the grandson of Cape Town Mayor Hercules Jarvis. He attended Diocesan College and went on to become a solicitor.
He represented Western Province in the inaugural Currie Cup. He made his only two appearances for South Africa during Great Britain’s 1891 tour. He was selected, as a forward, to play in the 1st and 3rd matches of the three Test series, both of which South Africa lost.
An attorney by profession, Bisset became president of the Cape Law Society and the South African Association in later life. He also came to be a director of companies in later life. Bisset married Henrietta Katherine Tait and the couple had six children – four daughters (Islay Kathleen, Gwendolyn, Helen & Betty) and two sons (William Murray and Eldred). He settled with his family at Aboyne House in Kenilworth, Cape Town and died in 1958 at the age of 90.
