Simon Digby was an Irish Anglican bishop at the end of the seventeenth century and the beginning of the eighteenth century.[2] He was the son of Essex Digby and attended Trinity College Dublin.[1] After a short spell as Dean of Kildare in 1678–1679, he was nominated Bishop of Limerick, Ardfert and Aghadoe on 24 January 1679 and consecrated on 23 March that year.[3] He was summoned to attend the short-lived Patriot Parliament called by James II of England in 1689. In 1690 he was translated to Elphin, being nominated on 4 December and appointed by letters patent on 12 January the following year.[4] He died in office on 7 April 1720.[1]
