Robert "Parsley" Peel (1723 – 12 September 1795) was a British merchant who was the grandfather of Robert Peel, a future prime minister of the United Kingdom. Peel started life as a yeoman farmer but experimented with calico printing, eventually creating a parsley leaf pattern which would become his trademark. Despite losing a number of machines during riots, Peel's company became the largest in the textile sector by the time of his death, with 23 factories.
