Alpheus Quicy (1774–1875) was an American stonemason who built a number of houses and other buildings in Connecticut.

Quicy, whose surname is sometimes misspelled as "Quincy," was a free Black man. He is credited with building various structures around Connecticut in the 1800s, including at least two stone houses in Manchester, CT −- the Trebbe house on East Center Street [1] and the Walter Bunce house on Bidwell Street [2] −- and portions of the Collins Axe Company factory buildings in Canton, CT.[3] The Bunce House, the only building of Quicy's that is still known to be standing, is part of the Connecticut Freedom Trail.[4][5]

Quicy and his wife, Joanna, are buried in West Cemetery in Manchester, CT.[6]
