Notes:

1 Oct 1804 the Hampshire Telegraph reports the loss of the hired cutter Georgiana, Lieut. J. Kneeshaw, on Wednesday last, on the banks of the Honfleur, when reconnoitring the enemy's force, very far up the Seine. The boats of the Havre squadron saved the people, and Lieut Kneeshaw set fire to the vessel, which was entirely destroyed, before any part of the flotilla could get near her. They, however, fired on their boats during their retreat, but there were no casualties. Lt K., the Master, and a part of the crew have arrived in the Trusty, to attend the usual proceedings of enquiry. Lt. K is an old officer, and has lost his arm in the Service.

17 Nov 1804 a Court Martial was held at Portsmouth on Lieut John Kneeshaw for the loss of the Georgiana. The Court was of the opinion that the conduct of Lieut K and his crew was highly meritorious, and adjudged them to be acquitted.
