Notes |
- Entered the navy in 1741, becoming a lieutenant in 1746 During the Seven Years' War he served in the English Channel and then the Mediterranean. In 1778, after further service in North America, he became commissioner of the dockyard at Portsmouth and governor of the naval academy.
He was promoted to Rear Admiral in 1780 and was sent to the West Indies and the coast of North America as Rodney's second in command.
Due to Rodney's absence in England, he was for a time in Independent command, and when the British islands of St. Kitts and Nevis were attacked by the French admiral Comte de Grasse, Hood, after initial defeats succeeded in beating off the attacks of the enemy. He was made an Irish peer for his share in the defeat of de Grasse on April 9 and 12 near Dominica.
On the outbreak of the French Revolutionary War, Hood was sent to the Mediterranean as commander in chief. His period of command from may 1793 to October 1794 was extremely active. In August 1793 he occupied Toulon on the invitation of the French Royalists and in co-operation with the Spaniards. In December of the same year the allies, who did not work harmoniously together were driven out of the city, mainly by the generalship of Napoleon.
In October 1794, Hood was by now an Admiral and was recalled to England. he held no further command at sea, but in 1796 he was named Governor of Greenwich Hospital, a post he held until his death. He was created Viscount Hood of Whitley in 1796.
