George Frank Boney (July 3, 1930 – August 30, 1972) was a justice of the Supreme Court of Alaska from December 2, 1968, until his death. He was the court's second chief justice following the retirement of Buell A. Nesbett in 1970, becoming the youngest chief justice of any state supreme court at the time.[1] He died in a boating accident at Cheri Lake, in present-day Houston, Alaska. The older of the two state courthouses in Anchorage, the one in which the Supreme Court holds its sessions, is named in his honor.
