Sir Emanuel Felix Agar (1781 – 28 August 1866)[1] was a British politician and former soldier.

Agar served in the British Army and took part in the Peninsular War.[2] He retired as major of the Life Guards and worked then in the department of the Treasurer of the Navy.[2] Having stood unsuccessfully for Sudbury already in 1806,[2] he entered the British House of Commons for it in the following year and represented the constituency until the general election of 1812, when he lost his seat.[1] In the latter year, Agar was created a Knight Bachelor.[2]

He died, aged 85, at Stratford Place, his wife Margaret having predeceased him in 1863.[3]
