Woodford H. Mabry (September 3, 1856 – January 4, 1899) was a career military officer who served as the 19th adjutant general of Texas from 1891 until 1898.

[3][4] The following year, in 1892, Mabry urged Austin citizens to donate more than 85 acres for the purposes of providing training space for members of the Texas Volunteer Guard.

[2][9] With the outbreak of the Spanish–American War, Mabry resigned his post as Adjutant General in May 1898 and took command, as a colonel, of the 1st Texas Volunteer Infantry.

[11][3] In recognition of his service, the United States Congress granted a life pension to his widow of fifty dollars per month.

[12][3] Fort Mabry was named in his honor in 1892 by vote of the companies of the Texas Volunteer Guard.
