Andrew Oswald Wilson (1866–1950), known professionally as A. Oswald Wilson, was an early-20th-century Western Australian architect. Born and trained as a carpenter in Victoria, he moved first to Perth and then to the Eastern Goldfields (by 1901), where he worked for Murdock McKay Hopkins. He was president of the Mechanics' Literary and Debating Society (also known as the Boulder Literary Society) in Boulder from 1904 to 1908, as well as active in the Boulder Benevolent Society. One of his best-known buildings is the Boulder town hall for which he submitted designs in 1907. In 1908 he moved back to Perth and practiced from Forrest Chambers (at 62 St George’s Terrace).
