Rear-Admiral Sir Edward Fitzmaurice Inglefield, KBE (1861–1945) was a Victorian Royal Navy officer and later secretary of Lloyd's of London.

It seems probable that he served in HMS London during her time engaged in the East African anti-slavery campaign of the late 19th century.

[8] The prototype device was fashioned in the naval dockyard in Valletta, and it was so successful that by 1895 it had become standard issue to Royal Navy ships.

Tryon was killed in the sinking, and Inglefield was appointed to the new flagship, Ramillies, flying the flag of Admiral Michael Culme-Seymour.

[10] He continued to serve in the Mediterranean in the battleships Trafalgar and Royal Sovereign and in 1899 was appointed in command of Swallow on the South America Station.

[11] From 1901 to 1905 he served as assistant director of Naval Intelligence, during which time he worked on Trade Division plans for advising ship owners of safe routes in the event of war.
