William Gawtress Raymond

William Gawtress Raymond (24 March 1855 – 23 April 1942) was a Liberal party member of the House of Commons of Canada.

Raymond was a former student of the Ontario Institute for the Blind in Brantford (now The W. Ross Macdonald School), after losing most of his sight on a voyage to the Cape of Good Hope in 1873.

He began his attendance at the school immediately after emigrating to Canada in 1873.

After serving his only federal term, the 14th Canadian Parliament, riding boundaries were changed and Raymond was defeated by Robert Edwy Ryerson of the Conservatives at the new Brantford City riding in the 1925 federal election.
