Sir Robert Cavendish Spencer was an English officer of the Royal Navy. Well-connected by birth, he made a naval career, which attracted the sons of the nobility and also of those from naval backgrounds, to serve under him and, despite liberal politics, worked as a reforming administrator with the future William IV of the United Kingdom.
