Harry Thornber (9 November 1851 – 28 July 1913) was an English cricketer. Born in Manchester, Lancashire, he was a right-handed batsman who made one appearance in first-class cricket.
Thornber played club cricket for Manchester and Sale before making his appearance in first-class cricket for Lancashire in 1874 against Kent at Maidstone. He opened the batting alongside Dick Barlow in Lancashire's first innings but was dismissed for a duck by James Fellowes, while in their second innings, he batted lower in the order and was again dismissed for a duck, this time run out. He was described as a steady middle-order batsman with a sound defense.
Outside cricket, Thornber was a merchant trading with the East Indies. He died in St Pancras, London on 28 July 1913.
