Frederick Henry Cooper

Frederick Henry Cooper CB (1827–1869) was a British civil servant who worked with the East India Company.

Along with James Neill, John Nicholson and William Hodson, he is noted for his ruthlessness and indiscriminate killings of Indian rebels and civilians during the 1857 uprising.

His acts were condemned by the Liberal MP and Quaker Charles Gilpin in the British parliament on 14 March 1859: "as an Englishman, he felt himself called upon to blush for the shame which had been brought upon the character of his country.

"[3] Nevertheless, Cooper was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath in the 1860 Birthday Honours while serving in the Bengal Civil Service.
