Wiley H. Bates (August 1, 1859 – April 1, 1935) was an American businessman, civic leader, and philanthropist. Born into slavery in North Carolina, Bates himself did not receive formal education, yet he was a lifelong advocate and supporter of the education system in the city where he lived most of his adult life, Annapolis, Maryland. Bates served one term as an alderman on the Annapolis City Council starting in 1897. He was the third black man to be elected as an alderman. He was considered one of the wealthiest black residents of Annapolis at the time. Bates earned his money from the highly popular grocery store he owned off of Cathedral Street in Annapolis.
