Sir John Evelyn, 4th Baronet (c. 1758 – 14 May 1833) was a British aristocrat.
[1] A lieutenant in the Portsmouth division of the Royal Marines, John killed a postman and was declared "of unsound mind" on 28 July 1795; he spent the rest of his life incarcerated.
He succeeded his cousin to the baronetcy on 1 April 1812, but did not inherit the estates, which were retained by the third baronet's widow until her own death when they passed to a more distant Evelyn cousin.
[1] John never married and on his death aged 75 at Bexhill-on-Sea on 14 May 1833, he was succeeded by his only surviving younger brother, Hugh.
