Charles Lewis Henry (July 1, 1849 – May 2, 1927) was an American lawyer and politician who served two terms as a U.S. Representative from Indiana from 1895 to 1899.

He was admitted to the bar and commenced practice in Pendleton, eventually moving to Anderson, Indiana in 1875.

Henry is credited with coining the phrase "interurban" (of Latin derivation meaning "between cities").

At the time of his death he was president and receiver of the Indianapolis & Cincinnati Traction Co., which he had managed for twenty-three years.
