Augustus Williamson Bradford (January 9, 1806ndash March 1, 1881), a Democrat, was the 32nd Governor of Maryland in the United States from 1862 to 1866.

Born in 1806 in Bel Air, Maryland, he was a staunch supporter of the Union during the American Civil War, even though much of eastern Maryland supported the Confederacy. Bradford was one of the many northern governors to attend the Loyal War Governors' Conference in Altoona, Pennsylvania. He died in 1881 in Baltimore, Maryland. He is buried at the Greenmount Cemetery in Baltimore, Maryland.
