Thomas Manson Norwood (April 26, 1830 – June 19, 1913) was a United States senator and Representative from Georgia.

He studied law under Georgia governor James Milton Smith,[1] and was admitted to the bar in 1852, commencing practice in Savannah.

In 1889 he again resumed the practice of law, and was appointed judge of the city court of Savannah in 1896, serving twelve years.

In his last address before his retirement on December 31, 1907, Norwood called for the execution of Black men who had consensual sexual relationships with White women, accusing them of being violent and abusive.

He also called for life imprisonment for White women who were involved, and subjecting Black people to chattel slavery.
