Thomas PARKER, a distinguished lawyrer and major book collector was 1st Earl of Macclesfield 1667-1732. In 1710 he was appointed Lord Chief Justice, and in 1718 Lord Chancellor; he was created Earl of Macclesfield in 1721. In 1725 the political tide turned against him and he was impeached for financial corruption, and selling offices; although he protested his innocence, the trial did seem to establish that he had indulged in venal practices beyond the accepted conventions of the time. He then retired to his estate at Shirburn Castle to spend more time with his books.He was known for his wide range of interests, and intellectual pursuits; he patronised numerous scholars, and had an extensive network of contacts and correspondents among leading thinkers and scientists. He was elected a fellow of the Royal Society in 1712. Parker acquired books all his life, and developed an extensive library augmented by his son to 20,000 books.
