Admiral John Gordon (1792 - 11 November 1869) was a Royal Navy officer and the son of George Gordon, Lord Haddo. He captained HMS America in 1844–1845. There was an incident in which he left his station despite being ordered to stay, in order to take Mexican merchants' gold to England, after which he was court-martialled for disobeying orders and retired from active service. In 1863, in retirement, he rose to the rank of admiral. Gordon Head in Saanich, Vancouver Island, Canada, is named after him.
