William E. Walsh (December 25, 1869 – February 6, 1943) was a tailor from Milwaukee, Wisconsin who served one term as a Democratic member of the Wisconsin State Assembly.
Background Walsh was born in Galway, Ireland. His father died when Walsh was 11 years old, and he was sent to Boston, where he lived with relatives for a year before returning to Ireland.
