Joseph H. Enos Sr. (March 13, 1910 – March 22, 1973) was an American politician who represented the District 3A in the New Jersey General Assembly for two terms from 1968 to 1971.

Biography Enos was born in Paulsboro, New Jersey, on March 13, 1910, and graduated in 1928 from Paulsboro High School. After earning an undergraduate degree from Pennsylvania State University in 1933, he completed his law degree in 1940 from South Jersey Law School (since renamed as Rutgers Law School).
