In 1841, Abdy contested Maldon unsuccessfully.[5] He was elected as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Lyme Regis in 1847 and represented the constituency until 1852.[6] On 22 December 1849, Abdy was created a baronet, of Albyns, in the County of Essex,[7] and in 1875, he was appointed High Sheriff of Essex. Abdy was Deputy Lieutenant and Justice of Peace.[3]
