William Henry Golding (14 April 1878 – 31 December 1961) was a Liberal party member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was born in Hibbert Township, Ontario and became a machinist by career.

In 1916, Golding became a municipal councillor in Seaforth, Ontario and continued in that role until he became the town's mayor in 1921. He remained mayor until 1929.[1]

He was first elected to Parliament at the Huron South riding in a by-election on 3 October 1932, then re-elected there in the 1935 federal election. With electoral district changes, he was re-elected at Huron—Perth in 1940 and 1945. He left the House of Commons in June 1949 when he was appointed to the Senate. He remained a senator until his death on 31 December 1961.
