Anthony Daly (died 1820) was a native of Rahruddy, a townland west of Loughrea, County Galway, Ireland, and a leader of the local Whiteboy movement. Daly was hanged on the Hill of Seefinn in 1820 for attempted murder.

Samuel Barber composed a significant choral work, "Anthony O Daly", lamenting his death, based on a poem by James Stephens.
