He was educated at Glasgow Grammar School and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he stood seventh wrangler in the Tripos in 1825. He contributed Arithmetic and Algebra [1] in fours parts (1827–1830) to the Library of Useful Knowledge (authorship by a Mr. Parker, AM, is identified in an edition in 1847,[2] and clinched, for example, in advertisements on 16 January and 17 July 1860 in Publishers' Circular and Bookseller's' Record [3]). In 1829, he was called to the bar at Lincoln's Inn and was an equity draftsman and conveyancer. He practiced on the Northern circuit and became Queen's Counsel in 1844.[4] Parker purchased the estate of Rothley Temple from his father-in-law Thomas Babington in 1845.[5] Parker became a Vice-Chancellor of the High Court in 1851 and received a knighthood. However he died the following year at the age of 49 from angina pectoris and was buried in the chapel at Rothley.[4] Parker married Mary Babington, third daughter of Thomas Babington in 1829. Their daughter Susan Emma Parker married Archibald Smith and their son James Parker was a successful rower.[6] Parker was the uncle of Charles Stuart Parker MP. An obituary notice appeared in the issue of Gentleman's Magazine for October, 1852.[7] References1. ^{{cite book|title=Arithmetic and algebra ...|date=1827|publisher=Baldwin & Cradock|url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=PSNRAAAAYAAJ|accessdate=2017-01-10}} {{s-start}}{{s-legal}}{{succession box2. ^{{cite book|title=Library of Useful Knowledge: Mathematis ...|author=Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge (Great Britain)|date=1847|publisher=R.
