Anthony Hussey, Esquire, (c. 1496 – 1560) (also written Huse, Hussie, etc.) was an English merchant and lawyer who was President Judge of the High Court of Admiralty under Henry VIII, before becoming Principal Registrar to the Archbishops of Canterbury from early in the term of Archbishop Cranmer, through the restored Catholic primacy of Cardinal Pole, and into the first months of Archbishop Parker's incumbency, taking a formal part in the latter's consecration. The official registers of these leading figures of the English Reformation period were compiled by him. While sustaining this role, with that of Proctor of the Court of the Arches and other related ecclesiastical offices as a Notary public, he acted abroad as agent and factor for Nicholas Wotton (Dean of Canterbury and royal ambassador to the Emperor).

During the reign of Queen Mary he sat twice in her parliaments, in 1553 and 1558.[1] Having promoted the first expedition of the Company of Merchant Adventurers to New Lands (the "Muscovy Company") during the time of Edward VI, in Mary's Charter of 1554/55 he was named one of the original four Consuls of the Company, and in 1556 succeeded Sebastian Cabot as the Company's Governor. He was also simultaneously Crown Agent and Governor of the English Merchants Adventurers in Antwerp from 1556 to 1558.[2] His long witness of the Reformation came to completion in his official role in the electing and consecration of Matthew Parker as the first Reformist Archbishop of the Elizabethan religious settlement.[3]
