Sir John Cordell, 2nd Baronet (1646–1690) of Long Melford, Sudbury, Suffolk, was an English Tory[1] politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1685 and 1690.
Melford Hall
Cordell was the eldest son of Sir Robert Cordell, 1st Baronet.[2] He was educated at Bury St. Edmunds Grammar School in 1656 and travelled abroad from 1663 to 1666.[3] By 1674, he married Elizabeth Waldegrave, daughter of Thomas Waldegrave of Smallbridge, Suffolk.[2]
Cordell was buried on 9 September 1690 at Long Melford leaving a son and two daughters.[2] The baronetcy passed to his eldest son John, who was returned for Sudbury in 1701 but who died by a fall from his horse in 1704. The estates then passed to his two sisters, of whom Margaret married Sir Charles Firebrace, 2nd Baronet.
