Notes for Stephen Doeg

There is a price money certificate No. 1592 which says: This is to certify that Stephen Doeg has served as carpenter's mate on board of his majesty's ship "Bellerophon" under my command from the 9th day of April 1815 to the 15th day of September 1815 and signed by Captain Frederick Lewis Maitland. Stephen is described as age 28, 5'8' high, and with a fair complexion. The "HMS Bellerophon" is the ship on which Napoleon surrendered on 15 July 1815. Stephen is reported to have been a background character in a famous painting of Napoleon's surrender. The family story goes that Stephen was rewarded, and with his prize he purchased two boats, both of which sank uninsured. In 1835 Stephen was a seaman.

 

A 1988 letter by Henry Doeg of Pretoria, South Africa relates: "One member Thomas Doeg was taken by the Press Gang during the Napoleonic wars, served in Bellerophen and later Victory and was Nelson's coxswain; it was he who held Nelson's head in the famous picture "The Death of Nelson". After Nelson's death, he transferred to Royal Sovereign as coxswain for Lord Collingwood, a Northumbrian, and had the onerous task of taking Napoleon to St. Helena. He later retired from the navy taking up his freelage with the shipwrights company." However, no record of this Thomas Doeg has been confirmed. Lord Nelson died in 1805 and Napoleon was transported to St. Helena in 1815.
