Charles Holmes (Royal Navy officer)
Charles Holmes (19 September 1711 – 21 November 1761) was a Rear admiral in the British Navy during the Seven Years' War, and was Wolfe's third-in-command during the capture of Quebec in 1759. He is also known for leading a British squadron up the River Ems in 1758, leading directly to the Capture of Emden.
==Early life==
Holmes was the fourth son of Colonel Henry Holmes, governor of the Isle of Wight, and his maternal grandfather had been Admiral Sir Robert Holmes, one of England's most noted naval leaders during the Anglo-Dutch Wars of the previous century who had overseen Holmes' Bonfire. Joining the navy at the age of 16, he was promoted to lieutenant in 1734 and received his first command in 1741.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Charles Holmes )〕
In 1747 Holmes was given command of HMS ''Lenox'', one of the biggest warships in the navy, but peace was signed the following year and he would serve for the next few years in British waters.〔
