Charles Vanbrugh

Charles Vanbrugh (c. 1680 – 2 November 1740) was an officer of the Royal Navy and member of parliament for Plymouth.

In 1709 he was replaced by Captain Robert Paston under whose command the Feversham was shipwrecked on 7 October 1711 with the loss of 102 lives.

Feversham was on a voyage from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to New York City after participating in Admiral Hovenden Walker's disastrous expedition to Quebec.
