Charles Ross (1799–1860), was a British politician, Member of Parliament for Orford (1822–1826), St Germans (1826–1832) and Northampton (1832–1837).
He was the son of Alexander Ross, Surveyor-General of the Ordnance and Isabella Barbara Evelyn Gunning, daughter of Sir Robert Gunning, 1st Baronet.
He was put forward as a candidate for St Albans by his father when he was just 21; he came second but had to step aside under threat of contest from John Easthope, despite the initial acquiescence of Lord Althorp, the local grandee.
He was nominated at Orford by the 3rd Marquess of Hertford for the constituency of Orford, after Castlereagh's suicide, and became a solid Tory Member of Parliament, to 1837.
Ross is buried at Kensal Green Cemetery, London.
