HMS Duke of Gloucester (1807)
HMS ''Duke of Gloucester'' (or ''Gloucester'') was a 10-gun brig of the Royal Navy which was launched at the Kingston Royal Naval Dockyard in Kingston, Ontario.
During the naval campaign in the War of 1812, ''Duke of Gloucester'' and HMS ''Growler'' engaged the U.S. Schooner ''Julia'' at Sackets Harbour on 19 July 1812.〔http://www.pc.gc.ca/lhn-nhs/on/fortgeorge/edu/edua2.aspx〕
She was being repaired at York when the Americans briefly captured the colonial capital in 1813 during the War of 1812. She was sailed away, but British general Roger Hale Sheaffe ordered that a larger sloop-of-war being constructed at the ship yard, , was to be torched during the British retreat from York. This prevented the Americans from seizing the frigate. ''Duke of Gloucester'' was herself destroyed by the British a month later on 29 May 1813 in the Battle of Sackett's Harbor.
