George Holme Sumner (10 November 1760 – 26 June 1838) was at various stages throughout the 18th and 19th century one of the two Members of Parliament for Ilchester, Guildford, and Surrey.

Born in Calcutta, he was the son of William Brightwell Sumner, a nabob, who returned from India and in 1770 bought Hatchlands. He was educated at Harrow School and Emmanuel College, Cambridge. He served as an officer of the Surrey Militia.[1][2][3]
