Myron B. Williams (c. 1817–December 7, 1884) was an American lawyer from Watertown, Wisconsin who served in the first two Wisconsin State Senates as a Democrat, serving from 1848 to 1852. He also served his city as a member of their board of supervisors, postmaster and as mayor, as district attorney for Jefferson County, and on the local school board.[1]

He later moved to Indiana, where Governor James D. Williams appointed him Judge of the Superior Court in 1877, when an additional court was instituted by the legislature.[2] Williams served as the 1882 President of the Indianapolis Bar Association.[3] He died in Indianapolis, Indiana at the age of 67, from inflammation of the bowels following a brief illness.[2][4]
