From the burial register: Francis William Fane, aged 66, of Green Park
Buildings, was buried on 3 Apr 1844.
From Royal Naval Biographies:
FRANCIS WILLIAM FANE, Esq
[Post-Captain of 1803.]
This officer is a son of John Fane, Esq. M.P.
for Oxfordshire, cousin to John, tenth Earl of
Westmoreland, by Lady Elizabeth Parker,
daughter of Thomas, third Earl of Macclesfield.
In 1796, we find him serving as a Midshipman
on board the Terpsichore, of 32 guns,
commanded by Captain Richard Bowen, whose
gallant action with the Mahonesa, a Spanish
frigate of superior force, has been recorded in
the preceding part of this work.
On the 12th Dec., in the same year, while
cruising to the westward of Cadiz, the
Terpsichore discovered an enemy’s ship about
four miles on the weather quarter. Chase was
immediately given, and continued, with much
manoeuvring on both sides, for nearly 40 hours;
during which, from the weather being extremely
squally, the Terpsichore sprung her top-masts. At
length, however, the stranger, finding it
impossible to avoid an action, brought to; and
about 10 P.M. on the 13th, Captain Bowen had
the satisfaction of getting alongside. A most
spirited battle immediately commenced, yard-
arm and yard-arm; and, after a hard contest of
nearly two hours, the enemy was obliged to
surrender. She proved to be la Vestale, French
frigate, of 36 guns, and 270 men, 30 of whom,
including her commander, were killed, and 37
wounded. The Terpsichore, whose complement,
from various causes, had previously been reduced
to 166, officers, men, and boys, sustained a loss
of 4 killed and 19 wounded; among the latter
were Mr. Fane and Captain Bowen’s brother, who
was the only Lieutenant then on board.
...
Captain Fane obtained post rank, Aug. 30,
1803; and subsequently commanded the
Draft 1a 15St Swithin’s Mausoleum – Memorial Inscriptions
Names Inscriptions Notes
Lapwing, Hind, and Cambrian frigates, the latter
employed on the Coast of Catalonia in co-
operation with the patriot General O’Donnell,
whom he conveyed to Tarragona, in a wounded
state, after recovering several towns from the
enemy, and taking about 1400 Frenchmen
prisoners.
On the 12th Dec. 1810, the Cambrian joined a
squadron under the orders of Captain (afterwards
Rear-Admiral) Thomas Rogers, who had been sent
by Sir Charles Cotton, to cut off the supplies
intended for Barcelona, where the enemy had
assembled in great numbers, with but little
means of subsistence. A French ketch of 14 guns
and 60 men, two xebecs of 3 guns and 30 men
each, and eight merchant vessels laden with
provisions, were then lying in the mole at
Palamos, and the senior officer, relying on
Captain Fane’s knowledge of the place,
immediately determined to attempt their
destruction. The unfortunate result of this
enterprise is thus described by Captain Rogers in
his report to the commander-in-chief:
...
Captain Fane subsequently commanded the
Pomone frigate. He married, July 20, 1824, the
youngest sister of Sir Charles William Flint, Knt.
Resident Under Secretary of State for the affairs
of Ireland.
