Sir Richard Wrottesley, 7th Baronet (19 June 1721 – 20 July 1769), of Wrottesley Hall in Staffordshire, was a Member of Parliament, Anglican clergyman and Dean of Worcester.[1] BiographyHe was born a younger son of Sir John Wrottesley, 4th Bt., MP, by Frances, the daughter of the Hon. John Grey, MP of Enville and educated at Winchester School (1736-8) and St. John's College, Oxford (1739), later moving to Queens' College, Cambridge. He succeeded his elder brother Sir Walter Wrottesley as baronet in 1732.[2] It is said that when Bonny Prince Charlie was marching south through England during the course of his rebellion, Sir Richard, a regular duellist, armed his tenants and gathered his servants to do battle but he reportedly never got further than a local inn, The Bull at Codsall, where his small band of men spent a convivial week.[3] He became M.P. for Tavistock in December 1747, holding the seat until 1754. He was appointed a Clerk of the Green Cloth from 1749 to 1754. He entered the Church and became minister at St Michael's, Tettenhall.[3] He was appointed chaplain in ordinary to the King, George III, in 1763 and collated Dean of Worcester for life in 1765. He died in 1769, having married Lady Mary Leveson-Gower, the daughter of John Leveson-Gower, 1st Earl Gower and Evelyn Pierrepont, in 1739. They had 5 daughters. See also
