- Rufus Choate, American lawyer and orator, was born at Ipswich, Massachusetts, the descendant of a family which settled in Massachusetts in 1643; brother of physician George Choate, and uncle to George C. S. Choate and Joseph Hodges Choate. Rufus Choate's birthplace, Choate House, remains virtually unchanged to this day. A precocious child, at six he is said to have been able to repeat large parts of the Bible and of Pilgrim's Progress from memory. He graduated as valedictorian of his class at Dartmouth College in 1819, was a tutor therein 1819–1820, spent a year in the law school of Harvard University, and studied for a like period at Washington, in the office of William Wirt, then Attorney General of the United States.
- Rufus Choate, född 1 oktober 1799 i Ipswich, Massachusetts, död 13 juli 1859 i Halifax, Nova Scotia, var en amerikansk advokat och politiker. Choate utexaminerades 1819 från Dartmouth College. Därefter studerade han juridik först vid Harvard University, sedan under USA:s justitieminister William Wirt. Han inledde 1823 sin karriär som advokat i Massachusetts. Han var ledamot av Massachusetts House of Representatives, underhuset i delstatens lagstiftande församling, 1825-1826 och ledamot av delstatens senat 1827. Choate var ledamot av 1831-1834 och ledamot av 1841-1845. Han förespråkade högre tullavgifter och var motståndare till annekteringen av Texas. Han föredrog advokatyrket framför den politiska karriären, men tjänstgjorde ändå som justitieminister i Massachusetts (Massachusetts Attorney General) 1853-1854. Till skillnad från många andra gamla whigs gick han inte med i republikanerna utan stödde demokraten James Buchanan i presidentvalet i USA 1856. Choates grav finns på Mount Auburn Cemetery i Cambridge, Massachusetts.
