Robert Digby, 3rd Baron Digby

Robert Digby, 3rd Baron Digby (30 April 1654 – 29 December 1677) was an English peer and Member of Parliament.

Digby was the son of Kildare Digby, 2nd Baron Digby, and Mary Gardiner. In 1661, aged 7, he succeeded his father as third Baron Digby. As this was an Irish peerage it did not entitle him to a seat in the House of Lords and in May 1677 he was elected to the House of Commons for Warwick. He died in December of the same year, aged only 23. Lord Digby never married and was succeeded in his title by his younger brother Simon.
