French ship Glorieux (1756) : ウィキペディア英語版 | HMS Glorieux
The French ship ''Glorieux'' was a second rate 74 gun ship in the French Navy. Built by Clairin Deslauriers at Rochefort and launched on 10 August 1756, she was rebuilt in 1777. ==French service== On 30 August 1781, she was with the French fleet under Admiral de Grasse. According to French sources, the British sloop and the frigate were on picket duty in the Chesapeake when they encountered the French fleet. ''Guadeloupe'' escaped up the York River to York Town, where she would later be scuttled.〔 The English court martial records report that ''Loyalist'' was returning to the British fleet off the Jersey coast when she encountered the main French fleet. The French frigate ''Aigrette'', with the 74-gun ''Glorieux'' in sight, was able to overtake ''Loyalist''.〔Hepper (1994), p.65.〕 The French took her into service as ''Loyaliste'' in September, but then gave her to the Americans in November 1781.〔Demerliac (1996), p.75, #481.〕 The British captured ''Glorieux'' at the Battle of the Saintes on 10 April 1782 and commissioned her into the Royal Navy as HMS ''Glorieux'' or HMS ''Glorious'' the following day. She was rated as a third rate.
