The Corry baronetcy, of Dunraven in the County of Antrim, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 10 September 1885 for James Corry, Member of Parliament for Belfast from 1874 to 1885 and Armagh Mid from 1886 to 1891. The 2nd Baronet was a Director of the Cunard Steamship Company.
