Charles Pole : ウィキペディア英語版
Sir Charles Pole, 1st Baronet

Admiral of the Fleet Sir Charles Morice Pole, 1st Baronet (18 January 1757 – 6 September 1830) was a Royal Navy officer and colonial governor. As a junior officer he saw action at the Siege of Pondicherry in India during the American Revolutionary War. After taking command of the fifth-rate HMS ''Success'' he captured and then destroyed the Spanish frigate ''Santa Catalina'' in the Strait of Gibraltar in the action of 16 March 1782 later in that War.
After capturing the French privateer ''Vanneau'' in June 1793, Pole took part in the Siege of Toulon at an early stage of the French Revolutionary Wars. He went on to be governor and commander-in-chief of Newfoundland and then commanded the Baltic Fleet later in the War. He also served as a Lord Commissioner of the Admiralty on the Admiralty Board led by Viscount Howick during the Napoleonic Wars.
==Early career==
Born the second son of Reginald Pole and Anne Pole (née Buller), Pole was educated at Plympton Grammar School before joining the Royal Naval Academy at Portsmouth in January 1770. He was appointed to the fifth-rate HMS ''Thames'' in 1772 and then transferred to the fourth-rate HMS ''Salisbury'' on the East Indies Station in December 1773.〔Heathcote, p. 211〕 Promoted to lieutenant on 26 June 1777, he was assigned to the sixth-rate HMS ''Seahorse'' and then transferred to the fourth-rate HMS ''Rippon'' in 1778 and saw action at the Siege of Pondicherry in India in October 1778 during the American Revolutionary War.〔 He then became commanding officer of the sloop HMS ''Cormorant'' and was sent home with the despatches.〔
Promoted to captain on 22 March 1779, Pole became commanding officer of the first-rate HMS ''Britannia'', flagship of Rear Admiral George Darby, Second-in-Command of the Channel Squadron.〔 He transferred to the command of the sixth-rate HMS ''Hussar'' in 1780 which ran aground off Hell Gate although he was acquitted at the subsequent court-martial.〔 He was given command of the fifth-rate HMS ''Success'' and in her, while undertaking an escort mission in support of the armed store-ship HMS ''Vernon'', captured and then destroyed the Spanish frigate ''Santa Catalina'' in the Strait of Gibraltar in the action of 16 March 1782.〔
Following the end of the War, Pole was given command of the third-rate HMS ''Crown'' before becoming Groom of the Bedchamber to the Duke of Clarence on 1 June 1789. He became commanding officer of the fifth-rate HMS ''Melampus'' in 1790, in which he watched the French fleet at Brest, and of the third-rate HMS ''Illustrious'' in 1791.〔
Pole transferred to the command of the third-rate HMS ''Colossus'' in the Mediterranean Fleet in early 1793 and, after capturing the French privateer ''Vanneau'' in June 1793, took part in the Siege of Toulon at an early stage of the French Revolutionary Wars.〔
