Flower Mocher
General Flower Mocher (c. 1729 – 18 July 1801), was a British army officer who served 50 years in the cavalry. He initially obtained a commission with Hawley's Dragoons then, following 12 years service with the Horse Grenadier Guards, he served 17 years with the Dragoon Guards as their Lieutenant Colonel and Colonel. Two years before his appointment as a general officer he was made Colonel of the 9th Regiment of Dragoons in Ireland. After some years service as deputy to the commander-in-chief Ireland he retired in 1794 shortly before his appointment to the rank of full General.
==Family==
Various inscriptions record earlier generations of his family in the Edmonton, Middlesex and coastal Dorset localities. These people may be his parents: from a tomb in Edmonton churchyard, "Mary relict of Daniel Mocher, 1759".〔William Robinson, ''The history and antiquities of the parish of Edmonton'' London 1819〕
On 21 July 1801 ''The Times'' reported under Deaths: "At his seat on Enfield Chase after a short illness General Flower Mocher, Colonel of the 9th regiment of Dragoons."〔Deaths ''The Times'', Tuesday, 21 July 1801; pg. 3; Issue 5164〕 St Andrew's Enfield contains the monumental inscription "General Flower Mocher, died 18th July 1801 aged 72 years. Jane Mocher his widow died 29th April 1811 aged 78 years."〔F T Cansick, ''The Monumental Inscriptions of Middlesex with biographical notices and descriptions of armorial bearings'', Wertheimer Lea, London 1875〕 Though his wife had a son, also an army officer, from a previous marriage there is no record of surviving children of Mocher.〔Will of Flower Mocher, General of his Majesty's Forces, Enfield, Middlesex. PROB 11/1360/262〕
