- William Plumer (c.1686-1767) was a British lawyer and Whig , who sat in the House of Commons intermittently between 1721 and 1761. Plumer was the second surviving son of John Plumer, a wealthy London merchant of Blakesware, Hertfordshire, and his wife Mary Hale, daughter of William Hale and his wife Mary Elwes of Kings Walden, Hertfordshire and sister of the eminent judge Sir Bernard Hale. His brothers were Richard and Walter Plumer. He was educated at Bishop’s Stortford and was admitted at Peterhouse, Cambridge on 9 May 1702.
