HMS Semiramis (1808)

HMS Semiramis was a fifth-rate Royal Navy frigate[1] during the Age of Sail.

She was built at Deptford Dockyard,[2] launched on 25 July 1808,[3] and eventually broken up in 1844.

Charles Richardson captained HMS Semiramis between 1810 and 1814,[4] (1823) during which time the ship destroyed the French 16-gun brig Le Pluvier and captured the 14-gun French privateer vessel Grand Jean Bart.

[5][3] Captain Sir James Yeo was transferred to command HMS Semiramis in October 1817; he would die aboard in 1818 while returning to England from Jamaica.
