Edward Despard

Edward Marcus Despard (1751 – 21 February 1803) was an Irish soldier who served in the British Army. During the American War of Independence Despard led a force to victory at the Battle of the Black River, securing the British presence on the Mosquito Coast. Following the war Despard was appointed Superintendent of what became British Honduras. He was recalled to London in 1790 after questions were raised about his conduct. Despard soon found himself in jail for debt. He later took up revolutionary politics, becoming involved with the United Britons movement, and was executed for high treason for his part in the failed Despard Plot.
==Early life==
Edward Despard was born in 1751 into a Protestant family of Huguenot and Anglo-Irish descent〔Jay p.42〕 in Roundwood, Camross, Queens County, Ireland. He was one of five brothers all of whom except the eldest, who inherited the family estate, served in the British military.〔Oman p.2〕 His elder brother John Despard (1745–1829) was an army officer who rose to the rank of full General.
