Sir Thomas Parry (c. 1515 – 15 December 1560) was a Comptroller of the Household to the English Queen Elizabeth I.
He was a friend and kinsman of Lord William Cecil of Burghley House, which may have afforded him his introduction to the court of King Edward VI.
He is first noticed attending Thomas Cromwell in 1536, having been employed with various tasks and responsibilities attached to the dissolution of monastic properties.
Parry's account of Elizabeth's household expenses at Hatfield from October 1551 to September 1552 survives.
[1] Elizabeth was quick to acknowledge his service and loyalty and conferred a knighthood to him upon her accession in 1558 and he was also made a privy counsellor.
