Robert Whittey, or Whitty (1370–1458) was a Bishop of Ferns in Ireland, notable for his long tenure of the see, and his great age at death. He was the son of Sir Richard Whitty of , outside Kilmore Quay, County Wexford. The Whittys were early Anglo-Norman settlers in Wexford. Ballyteige was burnt around 1408 but quickly rebuilt: one tower of the castle still stands. Robert himself was in residence at Ballyteige in 1425. The Whittys retained possession of Ballyteige until they were expelled by Cromwellian forces in 1654.

has abstract	Robert Whittey, or Whitty (1370–1458) was a Bishop of Ferns in Ireland, notable for his long tenure of the see, and his great age at death. He was the son of Sir Richard Whitty of , outside Kilmore Quay, County Wexford. The Whittys were early Anglo-Norman settlers in Wexford. Ballyteige was burnt around 1408 but quickly rebuilt: one tower of the castle still stands. Robert himself was in residence at Ballyteige in 1425. The Whittys retained possession of Ballyteige until they were expelled by Cromwellian forces in 1654. Robert was precentor of Ferns Cathedral, and was elected bishop by the Cathedral Chapter in February 1418, on foot of the required royal writ authorising the election. At that time the town of New Ross, which his predecessor Patrick Barrett had made the effective centre of the diocese, had long been under a papal interdict, as a punishment for a riot which resulted in the killing of several monks of the Order of Crutched Friars by the townspeople. The Bishop worked hard to have the interdict lifted, and was finally successful in 1435 in persuading Pope Eugenius IV to grant absolution to the townspeople of New Ross. As he grew older, his health began to fail, and he is said to have been bedridden in his last years. Accordingly, a statute of 1450 excused him from any further attendance at sessions of parliament or meetings of the Great Council, due to his "age and infirmity". He resigned the see in 1457, after a forty-year tenure, and died the following year, aged eighty-eight. (en)
