Sir Roger Burgoyne, 6th Baronet (1710 – 1780), of Sutton, Bedfordshire, was an English landowner and Whig politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1735 to 1747.

Burgoyne was baptized on 23 April 1710, the second son of Sir Roger Burgoyne, 4th Baronet, of Wroxall, Warwickshire and Sutton, Bedfordshire, and his wife Constance Middleton, daughter of Sir Thomas Middleton, MP of Stanstead Mountfitchet, Essex. He succeeded his elder brother to the baronetcy in July 1711. He was educated at Eton College in 1725 and was at  Trinity Hall, Cambridge from 1727 to 1730.

Burgoyne was returned as a Whig Member of Parliament for Bedfordshire at a by-election on 26 February 1735. He supported the Administration until 1739, when he voted against the Spanish Convention. He then voted generally with the Opposition. He was returned as MP for Bedfordshire at the 1741 British general election. He then changed sides, probably under the influence of his brother-in-law, Lord Halifax, and was classed as a ‘New Ally’ in 1746. He did not stand at the 1747 British general election.

Burgoyne married Lady Frances Montagu, daughter of George Montagu, 1st Earl of Halifax, MP, on 1 January 1739.  He was appointed Commissioner of the Victualling Board in 1752 and occupied the post for the rest of his life. He died on 31 December 1780, leaving two sons and three daughters, including:
