Henry Jarvis

Henry Jarvis (21 May 1839 – 10 May 1907) was a British trade unionist.

Born in Staveley in Derbyshire, Jarvis worked in a coal mine from the age of twelve. He was radicalised after he was locked out during a dispute at Pilley Green in 1854 and subsequently became active in the South Yorkshire Miners' Association (SYMA). Because of his trade unionism, he lost several jobs, but in 1883 found work for the Derbyshire Miners' Association (DMA), a split from the SYMA.
