Lavender (Antiques) Ltd. in 1988 (with receipt present), who acquired the miniatures from Sir Roger Carey, a direct descendant of the sitters. Edward Hawker (1782-1860) was an officer of the Royal Navy who served during the French Revolution. He went to sea as a boy of ten and was commissioned a lieutenant at thirteen. At twenty-one he became a commander, captaining his own ships at the outbreak of the Napoleonic Wars. Posted to the West Indies, he endured several mishaps, including his ship being struck by lightning and running aground, and surviving a severe hurricane that nearly sank the ship. He was successful at capturing a number of enemy privateers, and he served at the capture of Guadeloupe in 1810. At the end of the wars Hawker briefly commanded a ship as flag captain to the Earl of Northesk. He spent his retirement as a correspondent for The Times, and died an admiral in 1860, one of the last surviving commanders of the wars with France. (1)
