Mary Brayton Woodbridge (April 21, 1830 – October 25, 1894) was an American temperance reformer and editor. She was the first president of the local temperance union of her home town at Ravenna; then for years, president of her state, Ohio; and in 1878, she was chosen recording secretary of the National Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU). Upon the resignation of Judith Ellen Foster at the National WCTU convention in St. Louis, in October, 1884, Woodbridge was unanimously chosen national superintendent of the department of legislation and petitions. In addition to this public effort, and official duties, Woodbridge edited on a weekly basis several columns of the Commonwealth, a temperance paper. She also edited the Amendment Herald, which, under her leadership, attained a weekly circulation of 100,000 copies.
