Captain Paul Henry Ourry (1719–1783) was a Royal Navy officer and British politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1763 to 1775.

[1] Ourry joined the Royal Navy and was Lieutenant in 1742 serving on HMS Elizabeth from 1742 to 1744 and saw action at the Battle of Toulon.

War with France broke out in May 1756, while Ourry was en route to Port Mahon to assume command of his vessel.

The French seized Proserpine before Ourry arrived, and he was forced to return to England and petition the Navy Board for an alternative command.

A subsequent request for additional leave was flatly refused with advice from Admiralty that "his service is wanted and is so pressing that the Lords will not permit any other action that can occasion a moments delay.
