		Keppel was born on 25th April 1725 and joined the navy at the age of ten in 1735.
		Keppel and Palliser were close friends, and although Keppel was jealous that Palliser had been presented with the post, it did not appear to affect their friendship at first.
		Keppel asked not be sent to sea under the current Ministry, and so the Admiralty retired him, which led to a general resignation by his naval supporters, depriving the Navy of many able officers in the continuing war against America.

	Augustus Keppel, 1st Viscount Keppel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Dey is said to have complained that the King of England had sent a beardless boy to treat with him, and to have been told that if the beard was the necessary qualification for an ambassador it would have been easy to send a Billy goat.
		When therefore he was appointed to command the Western Squadron, the main fleet prepared against France in 1778, he went to sea predisposed to think that the First Lord would be glad for him to be defeated.
		When, therefore, the battle which Keppel fought with the French on 27 July 1778 (the First Battle of Ushant) ended in a highly unsatisfactory manner, owing mainly to his own unintelligent management, but partly through the failure of Sir Hugh Palliser to obey orders, he became convinced that he had been deliberately betrayed.

		Admiral Augustus Viscount Keppel was a close friend and political ally of the Marquis of Rockingham, who was the leader of the Whig political party in late 18th century England.
		Keppel expressed privately that he had lacked support from Palliser's ship, and vice-admiral Palliser, on hearing this, managed to get Lord Sandwich, as First Lord of the Admiralty, to Court Marshall Keppel for "misconduct and neglect of duty".
		It is said though that he already had plans to mark the southern extremity of his estate with the erection of a folly, and this historical event was the catalyst that he needed.

	Earl of Albemarle - Wikpedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		The name Albemarle (or Albermarle), which now forms the title of the earldom held by the English family of Keppel, is an early variant of the French Aumale (Lat.
		Alba Maria), other forms being Aubemarle and Aumerle, and is described in the patent of nobility granted in 1696-1697 by William III to Arnold Joost van Keppel as "a town and territory in the dukedom of Normandy."
		The motive for choosing this title was probably that, apart from its dignified traditions, it avoided the difficulty created by the fact that the Keppels had as yet no territorial possessions in the British Islands.

		Let's say Admiral Augustus Keppel had died at the indecisive Battle of Ushant in 1779.
		Though Keppel was acquitted, the firestorm of controversy his trial provoked shook the British Navy: many Whig flag officers vowed they would never serve under the (probably deservedly) tremendously unpopular First Lord of the Admiralty Lord Sandwich.
		As most officers of fighting captain's age were Whigs, this meant the British Navy was run in the field by elderly incompetents like Arbuthnot and company just in time to be roundly outfoxed by de Grasse at the Battle of the Capes and elsewhere.
