Garnham Edmonds (1866 – 9 April 1946) was a British Liberal politician.
Edmonds was a butcher in Bethnal Green, East London, trading as Edmonds and Mears tripe dressers.[1] He was a religious and social worker and president of the local Liberal association. In 1902 he was a member of Bethnal Green Metropolitan Borough Council, and was mayor of the borough in 1907.[1] In 1910 he was elected as a Progressive Party member of the London County Council, holding his seat until 1922. In the general election of that year he was elected as member of parliament for Bethnal Green North East with a majority of 115 votes over Walter Windsor of the Labour Party. However, a further election was held in 1923, and Edmonds was unseated by Windsor.[2]
Edmonds died at his home in Woodford Green, Essex in April 1946, aged 81.[3]
