Quincy Adams Gillmore (28 Februari 1825 – 7 April 1888) [1][2] adalah seorang insinyur sipil dan penulis Amerika yang menjadi jenderal di Tentara Serikat selama Perang Saudara Amerika. Ia dikenal karena perannya dalam kemenangan Serikat di Fort Pulaski, di mana artileri senapan modernnya dengan mudah menghancurkan dinding batu luar benteng, suatu tindakan yang pada hakikatnya membuat benteng batu menjadi usang. Ia mendapatkan reputasi internasional sebagai penyelenggara operasi pengepungan dan membantu merevolusi penggunaan persenjataan angkatan laut.
