William Morris Reade (1787 – 31 March 1847)[1] was an Irish Conservative politician.[2]

He married Elizabeth Maitland, daughter of Patrick Maitland and Anne née Bateman on 6 February 1827, with whom he had two children: William Morris Reade (1830–1886), and Louisa Reade (died 1918).[3]

After unsuccessfully contesting the seat in 1835, Reade was first elected Conservative MP for Waterford City at the 1841 general election but was removed upon petition the following year.[4][2]
