Wilfred Hanbury (16 January 1887 – 9 January 1966) was a Liberal party member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was born in Brandon, Manitoba and became a lumberman and manufacturer.

Hanbury attended St. John's College in Winnipeg and became president of the Pondosa Pine Lumber Company and a director of J. Hanbury company.[1]

He was first elected to Parliament at the Vancouver—Burrard riding in the 1930 general election after a previous unsuccessful campaign there in the 1926 election. After completing his only term, the 17th Canadian Parliament, Hanbury left federal politics and did not seek re-election in the 1935 election.
