Cyrus Trapaud

General Cyrus Trapaud (18 August 1715 – 3 May 1801) was a British Army officer.

Trapaud was born in Dublin, the son of a Huguenot refugee family, and a relative of Marshal Turenne.

As an ensign at the Battle of Dettingen, 1743, he reputedly saved the life of King George II, whose horse had bolted, and received a promotion as a reward.

Copies of these, by Edward Fisher, are held by the National Portrait Gallery.

[7] Trapaud's brother was deputy Governor of Fort Augustus.
