Context
Administrative/Biographical history:
Ogle was most probably a cousin of Admiral-of-the-Fleet Sir Chaloner Ogle (although the relationship is variously given as son, nephew or cousin). He became a lieutenant in 1745 and a captain in 1756. He saw active service during the Seven Years War and commanded a ship during the Falkland Islands crisis of 1770. In 1774 he was appointed to the RESOLUTION, guardship at Portsmouth. He sailed under Rodney to the relief of Gibraltar in 1779 and then went to America, being recalled on his promotion to rear-admiral in 1780. He became a vice-admiral in 1787 and admiral in 1794.
