Frederick William Child-Villiers (20 July 1815 – 23 May 1871)[1] was a British Conservative politician.

Child-Villiers was the son of George Child Villiers, 5th Earl of Jersey and Lady Sarah Sophia Fane. In 1842, he married Lady Elizabeth van Reede, daughter of Reynoud Diederik Jacob van Reede, 7th Earl of Athlone and Henrietta Dorothea Maria née Hope, but they had no children.[2]

Child-Villiers was elected Conservative Member of Parliament for Weymouth and Melcombe Regis at a by-election in 1847—caused by the resignation of William Dougal Christie—and held the seat until 1852 when he did not seek re-election.[2][3]

He was also a Lieutenant-Colonel in the 73rd (Perthshire) Regiment of Foot, and, in 1869, High Sheriff of Northamptonshire.[2]
