James Cosh (27 June 1838 – 20 September 1900) was a Scottish-Australian missionary and academic. He was born near Stranraer, and studied at the University of Glasgow and the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh before being ordained by the Reformed Presbyterian Church. Cosh served for four years on Efate in the New Hebrides (now Vanuatu). He translated Genesis and John into the local language. J. Graham Miller suggests that Cosh's "devoted and distinguished service in Australia revealed the permanent value of those few brief years of missionary work on Efate."
