From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir Robert Parning, or Parving, (d. August 26, 1343) was an English lawyer and administrator. He served as Chief Justice of the King's Bench from 1340 to 1341, Treasurer from January to October 1341, and Chancellor from 1341 to 1343. Originally from Cumberland, he was knight of the shire for this county five times between 1325 and 1332. He was married, but had no surviving sons, and when he died in London in 1343 his inheritance was divided up between his sisters.
