W. V. Salisbury, 1st Foot Guards. He was created an Irish Baronet, 30th Nov. 1782, and was the descendant of a respectable family, a junior branch of the ancient baronial family of Roche, Viscount Fermoy. He entered early into the army, and distinguished himself in America, particularly at the taking of the Moro Fort, at the Havannah. On leaving the army he obtained a seat in Parliament, where he was constantly in his place; and such was his humour and drollery, he could at any time change the temper of the house; through his pleasant interference, the most angry debates frequently concluded with peals of laughter. Sir Boyle Roche was master of the ceremonies at Dublin Castle. He married the eldest daughter of Admiral Sir Thomas Frankland, Bart., but had no issue. +He commanded, many years, the 3d, or King's Own regiment of dragoons, and raised the 96th regiment of infantry in the American war. He was orderly-serjeant to General Wolfe at the memorable attack on Quebec; and the person represented in the well-known picture of the Death of Wolfe," as supporting the General after he had received his fatal wound. The Marquis was a godson of George the First; he served under George the Second at the battle of Dettingen, and attended the person of William Duke of Cumberland at the battles of Fontenoy, Culloden, and Lafeldt. He was second in command at the memorable siege of Quebec, under General Wolfe, aud, consequently, his successor in the command in Canada. He also served a campaign in Portugal, and commanded the British forces sent to the assistance of that country against Spain. In 1767 he was appointed Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, where he continued till 1772, when he was appointed Master-General of the Ordnance, which situation he retained for ten years. He was considered an admirable caricaturist, even at the time when Hogarth flourished. He served as a private soldier under George the First and Second; was in the German wars in the reigns of these two monarchs; and attended General Wolfe in his last moments at the siege of Quebec: and though he had been in fifteen engagements and twenty-five skirmishes, he had not received a wound. He served at the battle of Minden, and was the only surviving officer who served under General Wolfe at Quebec. In 1782 he was appointed commander-in-chief in America; but, in consequence of the peace, did not proceed to the Continent. He served in 1793 at the relief of Ostend and Nieuport, and afterwards proceeded to the West Indies as commander-in-chief. He succeeded in captur ing Martinique, St. Lucia, and Guadaloupe. In 1801 he was created Baron Grey de Howick, and in 1806 advanced to a viscounty and earldom, as Viscount Howick and Earl Grey. His Lordship was the father of the present Premier. ** He was Captain and Paymaster of the late 76th or Mac Donald's regiment of Highlanders, and was made prisoner at the surrender of York Town in Virginia, in October, 1781. He was included in the thirteen British Captains who, in May 1782 (in violation of the capitulation), had lots cast for one of them to suffer death in retaliation for an American Captain, who was executed by the loyal refugees, and when the lot fell upon the late General Sir Charles Asgill, then a Captain in the Foot Guards.
