Thomas Duffield (October 1782 – 15 March 1854) was a Tory politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1832 to 1844. Duffield was born at Ancaster in Lincolnshire, the youngest son of Michael Duffield〔(Gentleman's Magazine 1833 )〕 of Sunninghill Park in Berkshire and his wife, Alice, youngest daughter of Jeremiah Crutchley of Southwark in Surrey (now Greater London). Thomas Duffield was elected Member of Parliament for Abingdon under the reformed parliament at the 1832 general election. He held the seat until 1844.〔(Leigh Rayment Comons constituencies ).〕 Duffield eloped with Amelia ('Emily') Maria Frances Elwes,〔(David Nash Ford's Royal Berkshire History — Marcham )〕 daughter and sole heiress of George Elwes Esq of Marcham Park at Marcham in Berkshire (now Oxfordshire) and granddaughter of the notoriously miserly John Elwes, MP for Berkshire. They had three sons and five daughters together. They inherited Marcham and extended the estate by the purchase of Upwood.〔(''Parishes: Marcham'' ), A History of the County of Berkshire: Volume 4 (1924), pp. 354–360.

Duffield — Midshipman )〕 2nd daughter of Lieut-Col Robert Rushbrooke of Rushbrooke Park in Suffolk. They had two sons and three daughters.
