Wilson Henry Mills (10 January 1882 – 27 March 1955) was a Liberal party member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was born in Sparta, Ontario and became a farmer and apple grower by career.^[1]

Mills attended schools in Elgin. He served for eight years as a municipal councillor in Sparta, Ontario and for four years as a regional councillor for Elgin County, Ontario, becoming that county's warden in 1920.^[1]

He was first elected to Parliament at the Elgin West riding in a by-election on 24 September 1934, replacing Mitchell Hepburn who resigned to run in the 1934 provincial election becoming Premier of Ontario.
