James Whitley Deans Dundas

Admiral Sir James Whitley Deans Dundas GCB (4 December 1785 – 3 October 1862) was a Royal Navy officer. He took part in the Napoleonic Wars, first as a junior officer when he took part in the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland in Autumn 1799 and later as a commander when he was in action at Copenhagen Dockyard shortly after the capture of that City in August 1807. He also served as Whig Member of Parliament for Greenwich and then for Devizes and became First Naval Lord in the First Russell ministry in July 1847 and in that role his service was dominated by the needs of Whig party. He was appointed Commander-in-Chief in the Mediterranean in 1852 and led all naval operations in the Black Sea including the bombardment of Sevastopol in October 1854 during the Crimean War.
==Early career==

Born the son of Dr James Deans (of Calcutta) and Janet Deans (née Dundas), James Deans, as he then was, joined the Royal Navy in March 1799. He initially joined the third-rate HMS ''Kent'' and took part in the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland in Autumn 1799 during the War of the Second Coalition.〔 In 1802 he saw action in combat with the French ship ''Duguay Trouin'' and was also involved with the capture of ''La Vautour''.〔 Promoted to lieutenant on 25 May 1805, he joined the fifth-rate HMS ''Cambrian'' and took part in capturing three privateers that year.〔 After serving for a few weeks as flag-lieutenant to Admiral The Hon. George Berkeley on the North American Station and having been promoted to commander on 8 October 1806, he was given command of the fifth-rate HMS ''Rosamond'' but was injured while putting out a fire at Copenhagen Dockyard shortly after the capture of that City in August 1807.〔 Promoted to captain on 13 October 1807, he briefly took command of the fifth-rate HMS ''Cambrian''.〔 Following his marriage to Janet Dundas he assumed the surname of Dundas in April 1808.

Dundas was given command of the third-rate HMS ''Stately'', flagship of Rear Admiral Thomas Bertie, in the Baltic Fleet in March 1809.〔 He took command of the third-rate HMS ''Venerable'' in January 1812 and then the frigate HMS ''Pyramus'' in September 1812 and in the latter ship captured two more privateers.〔 He took command of the armed frigate HMS ''Tagus'' in the Mediterranean Fleet in August 1815 and then the first-rate HMS ''Prince Regent'', as flag captain to Admiral Sir William Parker who was commanding on the coast of Portugal, in 1830.〔
Entering politics, Dundas became Whig Member of Parliament for Greenwich at the 1832 general election and, having also become Deputy Lieutenant of Berkshire on 16 June 1834, he sat in Parliament until he stood down at the 1835 general election in favour of a fellow Whig.〔 He was then given command of the first-rate HMS ''Britannia'', as flag captain to Admiral Sir Philip Durham who was Commander-in-Chief, Portsmouth, in 1836.〔 He became Member of Parliament for Devizes in February 1836 in place of Sir Philip Durham who had stood down as Member of Parliament for that constituency. He then resigned his seat in Parliament when he became Clerk of the Ordnance on 21 March 1838. He was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath on 25 October 1839.〔
Having been elected Member of Parliament for Greenwich again at the 1841 general election, Dundas became Fourth Naval Lord in the Second Melbourne ministry in June 1841 but stood down in September 1841 when the Government fell from power.
