John William Ivimey (12 September 1868 – 16 April 1961) was an English organist and composer who specialized in comic operas.

[3] While composing about twenty comic operas, as well as a symphony, a grand opera, cantatas and other songs, and much organ music, Ivimey was successively organist at St Peter's, Norbiton, and St Paul's, Onslow Square.

A reviewer praised both his work and his performance: "Laughing Mrs Cooper, pretty Miss Inez Roe, indefatigable Mr Orlebar, droll Mr Trouncer, and droller Mr Ivimey, in one night winning more renown (in Surbiton) than John Gilpin in his famous ride, or many a heaven-sent genius after years of patient toil.

[5] In August 1933, Ivimey was appointed by Arthur Buxton as organist and director of music at All Souls, Langham Place.

[7] Their daughter Edith Frances was born in 1894, in Wandsworth, and their son Alan Victor J. R. Ivimey in Fulham in 1900.
