William Harwood (d. Sept. 1780) was a militia colonel, landowner and politician in the Colony of Virginia. He represented Warwick County in the House of Burgesses for more than three decades (mostly with his neighbor William Digges) beginning in 1752), as well as during all five Virginia Revolutionary Conventions (although no record actually exists of his presence during the 2nd and 3rd conventions) and in the first session of the Virginia House of Delegates. Harwood also established Endview Plantation, which became his home and later that of his second son Edward Harwood and grandson (through his eldest son William who moved to Kentucky) Big Humphrey Harwood. Acquired by the City of Newport News in 1995, it is now operated as a house museum focusing on the American Civil War, as well as a park.
