Sir Robert Abdy, 3rd Baronet FSA (8 April 1688 – 27 August 1748)[1] was a British Tory politician.
He was the only son of Sir John Abdy, 2nd Baronet and his wife, Jane Nicholas, the daughter of Sir Edward Nicholas.[2] In 1691, aged only three, he succeeded his father as baronet.[1] Abdy was educated at Trinity College, Oxford, where he matriculated in 1705.[3]
From 1727 to 1748, he was a Member of Parliament (MP) for Essex.[4] A committed Tory, he was to have been one of the leaders of the 1744 Jacobite rising in Essex, and was privy to the military details of the planned French invasion.[5] Abdy was further a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London (FSA).[3]
On 5 July 1711, he married Theodosia Bramstone, only daughter of George Bramstone at St Christopher le Stocks in London.[3] They had two daughters and two sons.[2] Abdy died, aged 60 and was buried in Stapleford Abbots in Essex.[3] His oldest son John succeeded to the baronetcy.[6]
