Joseph Henry Tayler (February 7, 1859 – May 25, 1959) was an American banker and Republican politician from the U.S. state of Wisconsin. He was the 29th mayor of Green Bay, Wisconsin, and the ninth mayor of Fort Howard, Wisconsin. In 1932, he was one of several bank officers criminally charged for embezzlement and participating in a fraud to conceal the financial condition of the McCartney National Bank of Green Bay—he ultimately served four years in federal prison. His name was frequently abbreviated as J. H. Tayler, and his last name is often misspelled Taylor.
