George Stevenson should not be confused with Bob Stephenson, real name George Stephenson, former Derbyshire and Hampshire cricketer.

George Stanley Stevenson (20 July 1876 — 25 July 1938) was an English cricketer who played first-class cricket for Derbyshire in 1904.

Stevenson was born in Derby, the son of James Henry Stevenson, an ironmonger, and his wife Elizabeth. He made his debut for Derbyshire in the 1904 season in a first-class match in May against London County captained by WG Grace. In the match, he made his top score of 9 and took a wicket. Stevenson's only County Championship match came against Essex a month later, in which he bowled economically without taking a wicket and made zero and 1 from the tailend.

Stevenson was a left-handed batsman who played 4 innings in 2 first class matches with an average of 2.50 and a top score of 9. He was a left-arm fast-medium bowler and took 1 first class wicket at an average of 92.00.

Stevenson died in Fritchley, Derbyshire at the age of 62.
