Sir Clement Fisher, 2nd Baronet (1613 - 15 April 1683)[1] was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1661 to 1679. He supported the Royalist cause in the English Civil War.
Fisher was the son of Sir Robert Fisher, 1st Baronet of Great Packington, Warwickshire and his wife Elizabeth Tyringham, daughter of Sir Anthony Tyringham of Tyringham, Buckinghamshire.[2] His father was created Baronet Fisher of Great Packington on 7 December 1622.
During the Civil War with his father, he suffered for his support of the King. He succeeded to the baronetcy on the death of his father on 29 March 1647. He was fined £1,711, on 24 January 1648, which was reduced to £1,140.
Fisher married Jane Lane daughter of Thomas Lane, of Bentley, Staffordshire and his wife Anne Bagot, daughter of Walter Bagot, of Blithfield on 8 December 1662 with the wedding officiated by Gilbert Sheldon, Archbishop of Canterbury.[4] She had helped Charles II, to escape after the Battle of Worcester in September 1651,[5] for which she was granted £1,000 a year for life after the Restoration. They had no children and he was succeeded in the baronetcy by his nephew, also called Clement Fisher.[1]
