Please make sure you forward this link to your BBC Brits so they can invite Queen Elizabeth and King Phillip to come to Dauphin Island so they can see where their great grandchildren's collateral ancestor, Captain Robert Cavendish Spencer distinguished himself in combat. Captain Spencer commanded the HMS Carron during the 1st Battle of Ft. Bowyer on Mobile Point, He commanded  the seamen landed during the 2nd Battle of Ft.Bowyer. He was the spy and scout who discovered the route from Lake Borgne to the Mississippi River for the British and he was in charge of taking the fugitive slaves from Dauphin Island and Apalachicola to the Bahamas, Nova Scotia and Trinidad. http://dauphinislandhistory.blogspot.com/2014/04/httpthomas.html
