Edmund Salusbury Ffoulkes (12 January 1819 – 19 April 1894) was a British clergyman who converted from Anglicanism to Catholicism and back again in the 19th century.

His father was heir to the Eriviat estates which the ffoulkes family had owned since at least the 16th century.

When the position of vicar of the University Church of St Mary the Virgin in Oxford became vacant in 1878, no Fellow of Oriel College wished to accept the appointment and the position was then offered to Ffoulkes, who had previously assisted at services.
