Robert Francis Walker (1789–1854) was an English cleric and author, known as a translator of works of German evangelical writers.

He received his earlier education at Magdalen College School, Oxford, and as a chorister in chapel is said to have been tipped by Lord Nelson.

[1] For the period 1813–5 he was curate at St Ebbe's Church, Oxford, an evangelical stronghold.

[1] Walker remained at Purleigh for 30 years, until poor health compelled him to give up his charge.

In 1848, struck with paralysis, he went to reside at Great Baddow, near Chelmsford, and there he died on 31 January 1854.
