Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Murrough John Wilson KBE (14 September 1875 – 20 April 1946) was a British Army officer, member of parliament, and railway executive.

He was born at Cliffe Hall, the son of Col. John Gerald Wilson CB and his wife Angelina Rosa Geraldine O'Brien.

Wilson, who stood as a Unionist for the Yorkshire constituency of Richmond, was one of the flood of Coalition MPs elected, although he was replacing a fellow Conservative, William Orde-Powlett (later Lord Bolton).

[1] Maintaining his directorship of the NER throughout the war, Wilson continued as a director after the formation of the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) in 1923.

He was described in his obituary in The Times as a "great Yorkshireman, very well known throughout the whole county", and had earlier succeeded the 3rd Baron Grimthorpe as president of the Society of Yorkshiremen in London.
