Sir Thomas Wolstenholme, 2nd Baronet (c. 1622–1691) was an English baronet.
The Wolstenholme family acquired wealth and social position in Middlesex through service in the customs office. The second baronet built
Minchington Hall in Southgate, Middlesex, after 1664. In 1672, he was assessed to taxation on 35 hearths, the greatest amount in the parish.

3rd baronet, when the younger Wolstenholme married into the powerful Raynton family.
