Admiral Sir Ragnar Musgrave Colvin (7 May 1882 – 22 February 1954) was a long-serving Royal Navy officer who commanded the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) at the outbreak of the Second World War.
==Early life and background==
Colvin was the son of Clement Sneyd Colvin and his wife Alice Jane, née Lethbridge.〔(Colvin, Sir Ragnar Musgrave (1882–1954) ), Australian Dictionary of Biography, accessed 28 August 2009〕 This connected him with a long and illustrious line of British Empire soldiers and administrators, the Colvin family; his grandfather was John Russell Colvin, lieutenant-governor of the North-West Provinces of British India during the mutiny of 1857.〔(John Russell Colvin at Oxford Dictionary of National Biography )〕 His uncles included Walter Mytton and Auckland, also lieutenant-governor of the North-West Provinces and Oudh. A first cousin, Brenda Colvin (1897–1981),〔(Brenda Colvin at Oxford Dictionary of National Biography )〕 was an important landscape architect, author of standard works in the field and a force behind its professionalization. A more distant cousin was Sidney Colvin, who grew up to be a critic, curator, and great friend of Robert Louis Stevenson.
