-
Sir Robert de Marny (before 1343- at least1394) was an English knight residing in Essex. De Marny fought in the Battle of Poitiers or Poictiers (1356) in which the English defeated the French. He is best remembered now from William Morris's poem "The Haystack in the Floods," which imagines his death in a skirmish with some French partisans.
