Sir Richard Norton, 1st Baronet (c. 1582 – June 1646) was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1621 to 1622. He supported the Royalist cause in the English Civil War. In March 1608, Norton was set to join an embassy to Florence with the diplomat Stephen Lesieur. He was challenged to a duel by Henry Clare (a follower of the Earl of Montgomery) for wrongs done to his sister. Lesieur wrote to the Earl of Salisbury to prevent a fight. Trouble was avoided and Norton joined the embassy.
