Sir Roger Burgoyne, 6th Baronet (1710 – 1780), of Sutton, Bedfordshire, was an English landowner and Whig politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1735 to 1747.
Burgoyne was baptized on 23 April 1710, the second son of Sir Roger Burgoyne, 4th Baronet, of Wroxall, Warwickshire and Sutton, Bedfordshire, and his wife Constance Middleton, daughter of Sir Thomas Middleton, MP of Stanstead Mountfitchet, Essex.
[2] Burgoyne was returned as a Whig Member of Parliament for Bedfordshire at a by-election on 26 February 1735.
He then changed sides, probably under the influence of his brother-in-law, Lord Halifax, and was classed as a ‘New Ally’ in 1746.
He was appointed Commissioner of the Victualling Board in 1752 and occupied the post for the rest of his life.
