Charles Hathaway Larrabee (November 9, 1820 – January 20, 1883) was an American lawyer, Democratic politician, and Wisconsin pioneer. He served one term in the U.S. House of Representatives, representing Wisconsin's 3rd congressional district during the 36th Congress (1859–1860). Before being elected to Congress, he was one of Wisconsin's first state circuit court judges, and because of that role was an ex officio member of Wisconsin's first state Supreme Court (1848–1853). After his term in Congress, he enrolled in the Union Army and commanded the 24th Wisconsin Infantry Regiment in the American Civil War. Later in life he practiced law in California, where he died in the 1883 Tehachapi train wreck.
