This is a list of mayors of Waterford.

Overview
The mayor of Waterford wears a traditional gold chain during official duties.
The links on the chain commemorate individual past mayors, though the families of the mayors themselves are responsible for providing each link. Thus the number of links is far less than the total number of past mayors. Links may be added retroactively, usually by the descendants of past mayors.
Mayors are listed by year. Sources (Years 1377–1891),[1] (Other years).[2]
