José da Câmara Teles (1712 in Lisbon – 1757 in Lisbon), member of the Azorean dynastic House of Camara, he was son of Luís Manuel da Câmara, third Count of Ribeira Grande and made 13th Donatary-Captain of the island of São Miguel following his father's death (who never received the title directly).
José Teles was master of a grand House, accumulated from the hereditary privileges of his grandfather and all the donatary captains, alcaldes, and commanders of the Order of Christ (including commander of the Port of Mujas and Port of Ervagens on the island of São Miguel).
Yet, he was reluctant to visit his captaincy, until the King, as a requirement of the municipal councils of the Kingdom, by royal proclamation on 8 March 1740, ordered him to São Miguel.
He remained in Ponta Delgada for ten years, dedicating himself to the administration of his grandfather's factories in Ribeira Grande.
José da Câmara Teles returned to Corte in 1752, obtaining the post of Colonel in the infantry, but died in 1757 (at the age of 45).
