William Turnbull Leach (March 1, 1805 – October 13, 1886) was a Canadian clergyman and academic. Born in Berwick-upon-Tweed, England, the son of Robert Leach and Elizabeth Turnbull, Leach was educated in Berwick-upon-Tweed, Stirling, and received a Master of Arts degree from the University of Edinburgh. He was licensed a minister of the Church of Scotland and emigrated to Upper Canada in the 1830s. Rejecting the Church of Scotland, he was ordained in the Church of England in 1843 and was the first incumbent of Montreal's St George's Church. In 1854, he was appointed a canon of Christ Church Cathedral. In 1865 he was named domestic chaplain to the bishop and an archdeacon.
