Rear Admiral William Gordon (1705 – 17 April 1769) was a Royal Navy officer who became Commander-in-Chief, The Nore.
==Naval career==
Promoted to captain, Gordon became commanding officer of the 24-gun , and working with Lord George Graham commanding the 24-gun and the armed vessel ''Ursula'' under Lieutenant Fergusson, he came across three large privateers from Dunkirk, sailing in company with their prizes on 2 July 1745. They had taken seven prizes, and were taking them into Dunkirk. The British force attacked them early in the morning of 3 July 1745. After a fierce fight lasting until 4am, four of the prizes surrendered to the ''Sheerness'' and the ''Ursula'' captured the remaining three prizes.
