Francis Johnson (c. 1795 – January, 1876) was a linguist who taught Sanskrit, Telugu and Bengali at the East India Company College between 1824 and 1855. He compiled a comprehensive Persian, Arabic, and English Dictionary, which he published in 1852.
As a young man he travelled to Rome and Athens with Charles Lock Eastlake and Charles Barry and others, returning to England in 1824.
A nonconformist, he funded the construction in 1829 of a Congregationalist chapel at Hertford Heath, and its subsequent operation.
