Horatio Nelson
Horatio Nelson is Britain’s naval hero who is most often associated with the Battle of Trafalgar, but on the Caribbean isle of Nevis, his biggest association was with a woman Fanny Nisbet.
In his exploits at the Battles of Cape St. Vincent, the Nile, and Copenhagen, his romance with Lady Emma Hamilton, and his epochal victory and tragic death at the Battle of Trafalgar, Nelson seems always to be a little larger than life.
It was in the Caribbean, on the island of Nevis, that Nelson met and married Fanny Nisbet, and the island still bears of the young captain’s presence. His at the time was commander of the Leeward Islands Squadron. Nelson’s legacy is visible there as well, in the fine Georgian dockyard that now his name. What follows is a look at the life of Horatio Nelson. For those who desire a more extensive portrait, we recommend a visit to the Nelson Museum on Nevis, a modest institution that has the distinction of maintaining the largest of Nelson memorabilia in America.
