Sir John Trelawny, 4th Baronet (26 July 1691 – 2 February 1756), of Trelawne in Cornwall, was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1713 to 1734.
Trelawny was the eldest son of Sir Jonathan Trelawny, 3rd Baronet and Bishop of Bristol, Exeter and Chichester, and succeeded his father in the baronetcy on 19 July 1721.
Trelawny entered Parliament in 1713 as Member of Parliament for West Looe. In 1715 he was returned unopposed as MP for Liskeard. He was returned unopposed as MP for West Looe again in 1722 and then for East Looe in 1727. He died not stand in 1734. [2]
Trelawny married Agnes Blackwood (died 1777). They had no children. As his younger brother (Edward Trelawny, Governor of Jamaica) died before him, he was succeeded in the baronetcy by his cousin, Harry.
