Andrew Cecil Wolfson (1 May 1890 – 26 July 1978) was an English first-class cricketer.

Wolfson was the son of the Russian-born Henry Wolfson, who emigrated to England before making a fortune cultivating potatoes and tomatoes in the Canary Islands. He was educated in England at Marlborough College.[1] He later made two appearances in first-class cricket for H. D. G. Leveson Gower's XI in 1920, against Cambridge University and Oxford University at Eastbourne.[2] He scored 14 runs in his two matches, as well as taking 2 wickets with his right-arm medium pace.[3][4] Wolfson died in July 1978 at Forest Row, Sussex.
