Joshua Smith (1732 – 20 March 1819) was an English politician.

He was born the son of John Smith, a Lambeth merchant and became a timber merchant himself. He lived at Erlestoke Park, near Devizes, Wiltshire.

He became a director of the East India Company in 1771, and was Member of Parliament (MP) for Devizes from 1788 to 1818.

In 1766 he married Sarah, the daughter of Nathaniel Gilbert, judge and member of the legislative council of Antigua, with whom he had four daughters. Their eldest daughter Maria married in 1787 Charles Compton, 1st Marquess of Northampton.[1]
