Sir John Pakington, 2nd Baronet

Sir John Pakington, 2nd Baronet (13 August 1621 – 1680) of Westwood House, near Droitwich, Worcestershire was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1640 and 1679.

He succeeded his father to the baronetcy in 1624 and his grandfather to his Westwood estate in 1625.

[2] He was disabled from sitting on 20 August 1642 for executing a commission of array for Charles I.

He served the King during the English Civil War but was captured and imprisoned in the Tower of London.

He appeared at the muster before the Battle of Worcester, and was in consequence tried for treason, but no one would testify against him, probably because he had been captured by the Scots.
