Template:Use Irish English Sir Henry Cairnes, 2nd Baronet (1673 – 16 June 1743) was an Irish politician, a banker and merchant in London and a baronet in the Baronetage of Great Britain.[1]

He was the third and youngest son of John Cairnes and his wife Jane Miller, daughter of James Miller.[2] On 30 October 1732, according to a special remainder, he succeeded his oldest brother Alexander as baronet.[1][2] Another brother was William Cairnes.[1] In 1732, Cairnes entered the Irish House of Commons for Monaghan Borough, the same constituency Alexander had represented before, and sat for it until his death in 1743.[1]

On 10 July 1711, he married Frances Gould, daughter of John Gould, his brother's brother-in-law and a Director of the East India Company, at St Peter le Poer in London.[1] He died childless on 16 June 1743 and with his death the baronetcy became extinct.[2] His will was proven on 24 August 1745.[1]

His widow died on 8 March 1750 and was buried 3 days later at Putney.[1]
