James John Howard Gregory (November 7, 1827 – February 20, 1910) was an American educator, horticultural businessman, writer, politician, and philanthropist from Marblehead, Massachusetts. Gregory started his career as a public school teacher and later served as a principal. In 1854, he founded a successful seed company, introduced innovations like seed catalogs and developed notable varieties such as the Hubbard squash and cherry tomato. Due to the success of his business, he was known as the "Seed King of Marblehead". Gregory also served as a Massachusetts State Senator (1876–1877) and Marblehead Selectman, advocating for local development and education. A prolific author, he wrote practical gardening guides and supported African American education through the Marblehead Libraries program and school donations.
