  • The Néréide was a 38-gun frigate of the French Navy designed by Sané. In 1810, she sailed to Guadeloupe but was repelled by the blockade off Basse-Terre, and returned to Brest after a fight with HMS Rainbow and HMS Avon. She was captured during the action of 20 May 1811, and brought into British service as HMS Madagascar. She took part in the Peninsular War against France and the War of 1812 with the United States of America. Madagascar, Vengeur, and Lightning were in company on 6 March 1814 at the recapture of the Diamond. Shortly thereafter, Captain Bentinck Cavendish Doyle of Lightning transferred to take command of Madagascar. In June 1814, the ship in a flotilla under the command of Admiral Lord Cochrane carried General William Miller and his troops from Bordeaux to the Chesapeake Bay to reinforce General Ross in the War of 1812.1 During the Battle of North Point, a supplementary body of Royal Marines, drawn from 15 ships of the fleet, were assigned to the 2nd Battalion of Royal Marines, under the command of brevet Lieutenant Colonel James Malcolm. One of the two fatalities, Thomas Daw, was from HMS Ramillies.
