Thomas Wills (1826 – 1907?) was an Ontario political figure. He represented Hastings West in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario as a Conservative member from 1875 to 1879.
He was born in Salisbury, England in 1826 (one source indicates that he was born in Newfoundland [http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=REG&db=gregramstedt&id=I2506] ) and was educated there. In 1852, he married Anna Maria Levesconte. He served as clerk for Hastings County and was lieutenant-colonel for the local militia. Wills ran unsuccessfully for the same seat in the House of Commons in 1874.
