This is a list of Mayors of Seattle, Washington, USA.

On January 14, 1865, the Territorial Legislature approved the incorporation of the town of Seattle. However, following submission of a petition by several of the Town's citizens, Seattle was unincorporated on January 28, 1867.[1] Records of this two year period of municipal government did not survive. During this period, the city was governed by a board of trustees, with Charles C. Terry as its president.[1] The town (now a city) of Seattle was incorporated a second time on December 2, 1869.[1][2]
