Matsudaira Yorihiro (松平頼恕; 1798–1842)[1] was a Japanese daimyō of the late Edo period, who ruled as the ninth lord of the Takamatsu Domain.

Yorihiro ordered Mifuyu Tomoyasu, a scholar of Kokugaku (National Learning), to compile a book called Rekicho Yoki, and he presented it to the Imperial court.[2]

One of Yorihiro's sons was Ōkubo Tadanori. His descendant Yorihiro Matsudaira, named after him, was a notable figure of Japanese Scouting and recipient of the Bronze Wolf.
