William Lewis Maury (1813 – November 27, 1878) was an American explorer and naval officer who served in the United States Navy for over 20 years, then resigned to take an officer's commission in the Confederate States Navy. Maury assisted Charles Wilkes' exploration of the Pacific Ocean and acted as attaché to Matthew C. Perry's 1856 naval mission to Japan. ==Legacy== As a member of Wilkes' expedition, the Maury name was applied to a discovered feature of Puget Sound, Maury Island. In the 20th century, an ice-filled bay east of Cape Lewis, Antarctica, Maury Bay, was named after the explorer.
