George Lazenby (October, 1807 – June 9, 1895) was an early settler of Western Australia, known for his cabinetmaking business and for being a Methodist preacher. He visited the Swan River Colony on his brother's ship in 1831 (travelling to benefit his health) and emigrated there soon after, arriving on the Cygnet in January 1833. In the 1860s he built a house at Cardup, and established a flour mill and brick works—the latter continued in operation until the 1990s.

His elder daughter Hannah Boyd Lazenby married William Shakespeare Hall on 2 November 1868, and his younger daughter Jane Wesley Lazenby married Samuel John Rowe (son of Sub-Inspector of Police Thomas Rowe) on 21 January 1883.
