Sir Michael de Poynings, 2nd Baron Poynings, Knight, (1317 - 15 March 1369), of Bures St. Mary, Suffolk. He was present at the Battle of Crécy.

Michael de Poynings was summoned to Parliament as a baron from the 25th February 1342 to 24 February 1368. On account of the valiant conduct of his father, Thomas, who died in 1339 in battle at the storming of Hunycourt in Vermandois, France, the King received Michael's homage, though under age, and granted him livery of his lands and full benefit of his marriage taking security for the payment of the relief.

Poynings gave a thousand marks to Queen Philippa of Hainault in 1366 for the wardship and marriage of William son and heir of John Lord Bardolf to the end that he might take Agnes his daughter to wife, who by the name of "Agnes Bardolf" is mentioned as a legatee in the will of her mother, Joane Lady Poynings, dated 12 May 1369, and by that of' Lady Bardolf my sister' in the Will of Thomas Lord Poyings 28 October 1374.

Sir Michael de Poynings, 2nd Baron Poynings, married Joane (d.11 May 1369), daughter of Sir Richard Rokesley, Knight, and widow of Sir John de Molyns, Knight. They were buried together in the parish church at Poynings, Sussex. He was succeeded by his son Thomas de Poynings, 3rd Baron Poynings.
