About Edward Rotheram
Captain Edward Rotheram, CB was a Royal Navy officer who served in American War of Independence and French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. During his service, Rotheram saw action at several major naval engagements, including the Glorious First of June in 1794 and the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. Although he was highly praised for his actions at both battles, he was not well regarded in the service, being once described by his superior at Trafalgar, Cuthbert Collingwood, as "a man of no talent as a sea officer" and "a stupid man".
