Daniel Avery (September 18, 1766 – January 30, 1842) was a United States Representative from New York. Born in Groton, Connecticut, he attended the common schools and was appointed ensign in the Sixth Company, Eighth Regiment of the Connecticut Militia, and served as lieutenant and captain until May 1794. He moved to Aurora, Cayuga County, New York in 1795 and subsequently became the owner of a large tract of land which was farmed by tenants. He was elected as a Democratic-Republican to the Twelfth and Thirteenth Congresses, holding office from March 4, 1811 to March 3, 1815. He was elected to the Fourteenth Congress to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Enos T. Throop and served from September 30, 1816 to March 3, 1817.

Avery married Alice Anne Brown, of Bristol having one son Daniel Dudley Avery (1810–1879).[1]

Avery resumed the management of his estate and was connected with the land office at Albany for twenty years. He died in Aurora in 1842; interment was in Oak Glen Cemetery.
