George Meisner (March 19, 1845 – March 2, 1909) was a prominent German-born American banker, bank owner, bank president, builder of the Shelton Opera House, and namesake for Meisner's Bank in Shelton, Nebraska and the George Meisner House.

In a move that was criticized by some Republicans, on October 21, 1882, at the Buffalo County Republican Convention held in Kearney, Nebraska, Meisner a member of the Democratic Party, was nominated as a representative of Buffalo County for the Republican Party.[1]

After Meisner's death, the total value of his estate was appraised at over $600,000.[2]
