World Civilizations Reader's Companion to Military History Admiral and Naval Reformer Jackie Fisher, first Baron Fisher of Kilverstone, was born in Ceylon, the son of an English planter. He joined the navy in 1854, was made captain in 1874, and reached flag rank in 1890. Fisher served as commander of the Royal Navy's gunnery school (1883-1886), director of naval ordnance (DNO) (1886-1891), superintendent of the Portsmouth Dockyard (1891-1892), third sea lord and controller (1892-1897), commander of the North America and West Indies station (1897), commander of the Mediterranean Fleet (1897-1901), second sea lord (1902-1903), commander of the Portsmouth Dockyard (1903-1904), first sea lord (1904-1910 and 1914-1915), and chairman of the Board of Invention and Research (1915-1918). While at the gunnery school and as DNO, Fisher was involved with the development of breech-loading big-guns, quick-firing guns, and naval range finders. As third sea lord and controller, he invented the destroyer and encouraged the introduction of water-tube boilers. As second sea lord, he reformed naval education. As first sea lord, Fisher changed the management of the dockyards, the manning system, gunnery training, the warship reserve, and the distribution of the fleet. These initiatives concentrated the main strength of the Royal Navy in home waters, increased the navy's ability to mobilize its full strength rapidly and fight more effectively in case of a short war, and produced large reductions in naval spending.

    http://www.ourcivilisation.com/smartboard/shop/arbuthnot/about.htm
    
    Extractions: Died: 27 Feb 1735 in London, England. Studied at Marischal College, Aberdeen, then took a medical degree at the University of St Andrews graduating in 1696. He translated Huygens' tract on probability in 1692 and extended it by adding to it a few further games of chance. This was the first work on probability published in English. Arbuthnot went to London and gave lessons in mathematics. Around this time (1700) he published Essay towards a natural history of the Earth and Essay on the usefulness of mathematical learning . He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1704. In 1705 he was appointed physician to Queen Anne. He continued his scientific work submitting a paper to the Royal Society in 1710 discussing the slight excess of male births over female births. This paper is perhaps the first application of probability to social statistics. In this paper he claims to demonstrate that divine providence, not chance, governs the sex ratio at birth. Arbuthnot's main fame is on his reputation as a wit and on his satirical writings. With

JOHN1 ARBUTHNOT1 was born Abt. 1684 in Scotland2, and died in Virginia. He married UNKNOWN. Notes for JOHN ARBUTHNOT: From "National Genealogical Society Quarterly," June 1975, Vol.63, No.2, an article entitled "Scottish Rebels Transported to Maryland, 1747" lists John Arbuthnot as transported in the ship Johnson of Liverpool, 1747. These "rebels" were "taken prisoner after the 1745 Scottish uprising...to the plantations at the rate of 5 pounds per head." The Johnson, captained by William Pemberton, left Liverpool 5 May 1747, arriving at Port Oxford, Maryland on 17 July 1747. It has not been proven that this John is the immigrant ancestor of this line.

    Extractions: There has been considerable research done by Jo Ann Arbuthnot Mardis in order to determine which person was the immigrant ancestor for Table 58. Many of the sought-after records burned in house and courthouse fires. At the present time, the material offered here is the most plausible explanation. Thomas was descended from Alexander Arbuthnot, Sr., 1st in Rora, of Scotland, Table P. Although it is theorized by some that John Arbuthnot and Dorothea Jones Donald Arbuthnot (born 2 Feb 1727 and died about 1780) are the ancestors of this line, it does not seem likely, given the statement in the Jones Genealogy that Dorothea had no children by either her first husband, George Donald, a Glasgow merchant, or her second, "Mr. Arbuthnot." An article, "History of Kentucky," edition 8-13, lists Dorothea's second husband as "Mr. Arbuthnot, D.D. born about 1780."
