Edward Cornwallis

Lieutenant General Edward Cornwallis (5 March 1713 – 14 January 1776) was a British military officer who was the first Governor of Nova Scotia at Halifax, Nova Scotia. He later served as the Governor of Gibraltar.
==Early life==
He was the sixth son of Charles, 4th Baron Cornwallis, and Lady Charlotte Butler, daughter of the Earl of Arran.〔(Mastermason.com profile of Edward Cornwallis )〕 The Cornwallis family possessed estates at Culford in Suffolk and the Channel Islands.〔 His grandfather, Charles Cornwallis, 3rd Baron Cornwallis, was First Lord of the Admiralty. His nephews were Charles Cornwallis, 1st Marquess Cornwallis, James Cornwallis, 4th Earl Cornwallis, and William Cornwallis.
He and his twin brother, Frederick Cornwallis, were made royal pages at the age of 12.〔 They were enrolled at Eton at age 14. Their brother, Stephen Cornwallis, rose to the rank of General in the Army.
It was initially unclear which brother would enter the church and which the military. The matter was decided when, one day, Frederick fell and paralyzed his arm; he would take the religious path.
At age 18, Edward was commissioned into the 47th Regiment of Foot in 1731.〔
