Robert Bateson (29 March 1816 – 23 December 1843)[1] was an Irish Conservative politician.

He was the oldest son of Sir Robert Bateson, 1st Baronet and his wife Catherine, the youngest daughter of Samuel Dickinson.[2]

Bateson entered the British House of Commons in 1842, sitting for Londonderry, the same constituency his father had previously represented, until his own early death in the following year.[1]

He died of typhus aged 27 on a visit of Jerusalem, predeceasing his father.[3] He was succeeded as a Member of Parliament by his younger brother Thomas, later raised to the Peerage of the United Kingdom as Baron Deramore.[4] His youngest brother George was per a special remainder heir to the barony.[4]
