Henry C. Dudley
Henry C. Dudley (1813–1894), known also as Henry Dudley, was an English-born North American architect, known for his Gothic Revival churches. He was a founding member of the American Institute of Architects and designed a large number of churches, among them Saint Paul's Episcopal Cathedral in Syracuse, New York, built in 1884,[1][2][3] and Trinity Church (Elmira, New York), completed in 1858.[4]
He partnered with architect Frank Wills, whom he knew from their days working together in Exeter, England for John Hayward,[5] and worked on a number of churches with him. After Wills' sudden death in April 1857, Dudley is believed to have completed the Episcopal Church of the Nativity (Huntsville, Alabama), which is now a National Historic Landmark.[2] He also worked on his own and with Frederick Diaper.[1]
Buildings designed by Dudley which are individually listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) include:
- Carlheim, located north of Leesburg, Virginia on U.S. 15, and listed on the National Register.
- Church of the Holy Trinity and Rectory, 381 Main St. and 144 Broad St., Middletown, Connecticut

Dudley also designed buildings which are now included as contributing properties in NRHP-listed historic districts:
- St. John's Episcopal Church, in the Downtown Waterbury Historic District, Waterbury, Connecticut.
- Trinity Episcopal Church in what is now the Tariffville Historic District, in Tariffville, Connecticut.[6]:18
- one or more buildings in West Main Street-West James Street Historic District, in Richfield Springs, New York
- Christ Episcopal Church, in Red Wing, Minnesota, named by the National Trust for Historic Preservation to its 2008 distinctive destinations list.
Two churches believed to be the work of Wills and Dudley will likely have had increased involvement by Dudley, due to their completion after Will's death:[2]
- Church of the Nativity (Union, South Carolina), 1856–59
- Trinity Church (Natchitoches, Louisiana), 1857–1860
