Henry John Adeane DL (18 June 1789 – 11 May 1847) was an English barrister and politician.
Early life and education Adeane was the second but first surviving son of Robert Jones Adeane of Babraham, Cambridgeshire, and Annabella Blake, daughter of Sir Patrick Blake, 1st Baronet, of Langham Hall, Suffolk.

He was the grandson of Gen. James Whorwood Adeane. He was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge. Frederic Carus Adeane (1847 – 5 December 1852), died young
