James Pratt Stafford (1 January 1844 – 24 August 1919) was an English cricketer. Stafford's batting and bowling styles are unknown. He was born at Godalming, Surrey.

Stafford made a single first-class appearance for Surrey against Yorkshire in 1864 at Brammall Lane, Sheffield.^[1] Surrey won the toss and elected to bat first, making 195 all out, with Stafford the last man out in the innings, dismissed for a duck by Luke Greenwood. Yorkshire were then dismissed for 236 in their first-innings, during which Stafford bowled twelve wicketless overs, which conceded 31 runs. In response, Surrey made 247 all out in their second-innings, with Stafford once again the last man out when he was dismissed for a duck by Roger Iddison. Yorkshire reached 33/2 in their second-innings, at which point the match was declared a draw.^[2]

He died at Fratton, Hampshire, on 24 August 1919.
