General Sir John Dalling, 1st Baronet (c. 1731 – 16 January 1798) was a British soldier and colonial administrator.
==Military career==
Dalling was the son of John Dalling, of Bungay, Suffolk, by his wife Anne, a daughter of Colonel William Windham (1673-1730), of Earsham, or Ersham, Norfolk (bought circa 1720, with South Sea bubble profits〔''The History of Parliament: the House of Commons'', 1715-1754, ed. R. Sedgwick, 1970〕), MP. Colonel Windham was the second son of William Windham I, of Felbrigg Hall, and a first cousin of Lord Townshend, both being grandsons of Sir Joseph Ashe, 1st Baronet. Colonel Windham's grandson, Joseph Windham of Earsham (1739–1810), died in 1810 at which point Dalling's heirs inherited that estate.〔William Wyndham (d. 1743?), of Ersham, Norfolk, was the eldest son of Colonel Thomas Wyndham. Earsham passed to William Windham (1706 or 1708-1789 (or 1743-ODNB)), MP, who was married (1734) to sometime Royal ''whore'' (Hervey) or mistress, and governess, Mary, Countess of Deloraine (1703-1744), was Comptroller of the Household (until 1765), previously having been deputy governor, to George II's youngest son, H.R.H. the Duke of Cumberland (from 1731), and was said, by the ODNB, to have been a governor of Chelsea Hospital, but is not listed.〕
He served with the British forces under James Wolfe that captured Quebec from France in 1759. Dalling was Governor of Jamaica from 1777 to 1782 and commander-in-chief of the forces in Madras (Fort St. George), from 1784 to 1786. He was made a colonel of the 60th Foot in 1776 and, having been promoted to lieutenant-general in the army in 1782, he became colonel in the 37th Foot in 1783. Promoted to full general in 1796, he was created a baronet of Burwood in the County of Surrey on 11 March 1783.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sir John Dalling, 1st Baronet )〕
