PHILIP LAMB, Esq.
[Commander.]

Was a midshipman on board the Royal George when she sunk at Spithead, in 1782; and appears to have been promoted soon after that disaster. He commanded the Kite cutter during the Russian armament, and at the commencement of the French revolutionary war; and obtained his present rank in April, 1802.
