}}John Henry Burton (31 July 1885[1] – 22 April 1938{{efn|name=deathdetails}}) was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Blackburn Rovers and Birmingham.[2]

Burton was born in South Bank, which was then in the North Riding of Yorkshire. A forward, he signed for Blackburn Rovers, and made his debut in the Football League with the club.[3] He joined West Ham United for the 1908–09 season, in which he scored 3 goals in 19 games in all competitions, of which 15 were in the Southern League.[1] He then moved back to the Football League with Birmingham, but despite a return of three goals in the four Second Division games he played,[4] he was unable to establish himself as a first-team player. In October 1910, Burton dropped back into non-league football with Nelson. He joined Cardiff City in 1911, alongside his brother George,[5][6] top scoring for the club in the 1912–13 season as they finished in first place in the Second Division of the Southern Football League.[5] He later played for Southend United.[3] During the First World War he made guest appearances for West Ham United.[1]

Burton died of septicaemia in Whipps Cross Hospital, Essex in 1938 at the age of 52.{{efn|name=deathdetails|The date and place of death given in Matthews' Birmingham City: A Complete Record and elsewhere, of 13 May 1949 in Derby,[3] cannot be that of the footballer John Henry Burton. The John H. Burton who died in Derby in 1949 was aged 73;[7] the footballer would have been 63.}}
