John Willard Freeborn (May 24, 1885 – December 16, 1953) was a farmer and politician in Ontario, Canada. He represented Middlesex East from 1919 to 1926 as a United Farmers member and Middlesex North from 1934 to 1943 as a Liberal member in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario.[1]
The son of Thomas Freeborn and Margaret Crawdon, he was born in Denfield, Middlesex County and was educated there. In 1913, he married J. Irene Carmichael.[1]
