Lt-Col Henry Edward Stirling Home-Drummond-Moray (15 September 1846 – 16 May 1911) was a Scottish soldier, politician, and landowner.
The son of Charles Stirling Home-Drummond-Moray of Abercairny and Blair Drummond and Lady Anne Douglas, daughter of 5th Marquess of Queensberry, he was born in Edinburgh and educated at Eton College. He served in the Scots Guards from 1866 to 1880, rising to rank of Lieutenant-Colonel.

He dropped the name of Moray on succeeding his father in the estate of Blair Drummond in 1891.
