Robert Paris Taylor (c 1741–1792) was a British administrator and politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1768 to 1774.
[1] In 1765 Taylor was recommended as a candidate for Ilchester because he could sustain the expense, but he did not get the seat.
At the 1768 general election he was returned unopposed as Member of Parliament for Berwick-upon-Tweed.
He was embroiled in litigation with the trustees of Lord Holland's estate over the accounts of the paymaster's office.
He was imprisoned for debt in Fleet prison where he passed the last twelve years of his life.
