Sir Robert Montgomery, GCSI, KCB (2 December 1809 28 December 1887), was a British Administrator in India.In 1827 he was appointed to the Indian Civil Service. His first notable position was as a commissioner in Cawnpore. In 1849, Montgomery was made a Commissioner at Lahore. The following year he replaced Charles Grenville Mansel on the Board of Administration, the body responsible for governing the Punjab. His two colleagues in the Board of Administration, Henry Lawrence and John Lawrence Werewere both, like Montgomery, alumni of Foyle College.

In May 1857, at the start of the Indian Mutiny, he was in Lahore. He immediately had the native garrison disarmed, which prevented them from taking any action in the rebellion.
