Vice-Admiral Sir Joshua Rowley, 1st Baronet (1734 – 1790) was a Royal Navy officer who was the fourth son of Admiral Sir William Rowley. Sir Joshua was from an ancient English family, originating in Staffordshire (England) and was born on 1 May 1734. Rowley served with distinction in a number of battles throughout his career and was highly praised by his contemporaries. Unfortunately whilst his career was often active he did not have the opportunity to command any significant engagements and always followed rather than led. His achievements have therefore been eclipsed by his contemporaries such as Keppel, Hawke, Howe and Rodney. Rowley however remains one of the stalwart commanders of the wooden walls that kept Britain safe for so long.

  • サー・ジョシュア・ロウリー(Sir Joshua Rowley、1730年5月1日 - 1790年2月20日)は、イギリス海軍の提督。提督の長男として、サフォークのテンドリングホールの自宅で生まれたといわれる。海軍士官としての経歴の中で、多くの戦闘に参加して殊勲を立て、同時代の人々からかなりのな賞賛を受けた。現役時代は戦闘が相次いだものの、大きな戦いの指揮を任せられることがなく、命令するよりも命令を受ける方だったのは、彼にとって不幸なことだった。そのため彼の軍功は、同時代の提督、たとえばオーガスタス・ケッペル、エドワード・ホーク、リチャード・ハウやジョージ・ブリッジズ・ロドニーのものとされている。しかしロウリーは、イギリスを長きにわたり守ってきたイギリス海軍の中でも、強い信念を持つ指揮官の一人である。 (ja)
