Henry Dale (d. July 1610) was a hunter in the Jamestown colony. Like many of the English colonists, Dale feared and loathed the sims the inhabited the New World and posed a threat to the colonists, although his hatred went to illogical extremes.

Dale accompanied Edward Wingfield's expedition to retrieve his daughter Joanna from a group of sims. Although Wingfield was able to rescue his daughter peacefully from the sims, Dale, overcome by hatred, fired on them. The sims responded, killing fellow colonist Allan Cooper instantly. At the last, Dale realized his folly, and stood his ground to allow Wingfield and his daughter to escape. He was overcome and killed by the sims.
