Pedro Nolasco Vergara Albano also known as Pedro Nolasco Martínez de Vergara Albano (Talca, 1800 - Santiago, September 23, 1867) was a Chilean deputy, governor and farmer.

His parents were José Francisco Martínez de Vergara y Rojas-Puebla and María del Rosario Albano de la Cruz, while she was also the daughter of Juan Albano Pereira Márquez and Bartolina de la Cruz y Bahamonde. He married her cousin Mercedes Loys Vergara, with whom he had eleven children: Elisa, Natalia, Víctor, Maria, Agustina, Soledad, Matilde, Rafael, Pedro, Sabina and Filomena. He was nephew of Vicente, Juan Manuel, Anselmo and Nicolas de la Cruz y Bahamonde -who was Conde de Maule-, and cousin of Diego Vergara Albano, Juan Albano de la Cruz and Casimiro Albano de la Cruz.

He completed his primary and secondary education in Talca, under the tutelage of the Jesuits. Afterwards, on his higher education, he got a degree in Law, in 1822, at the Universidad de San Felipe.

He was elected deputy for the province of Colchagua in 1823, being reelected in 1824, in Talca, and later in the period 1827–1830, in the province of Talca. He was elected deputy between 1833–1836, and was again re-elected on the same district until 1847. He was a renowned politician and worked as a deputy until 1847. He participated in many legislative committees, and after losing his sight, he subsequently retired to a private life in 1859, living in Santiago, in Huérfanos street. Being blind, he was prevented from exercising any public activity at the time.

He was governor of Talca between 1830 and 1833, in the rising of the ideas of Diego Portales and the triumph of Pelucones, and their conservative ideas, over Pipiolos.
