John Smith (1580–1631) was an English explorer, military personnel, writer, and autobiographer. Born in Willoughby and baptized on January 6, 1580, he held the rank of soldier and was a citizen of the Kingdom of England. He died in London on June 21, 1631.

His writings have been documented in sources including *The Nuttall Encyclopædia* and the *Encyclopædia Britannica* 11th edition.
