About Pierre Douville

Ship-of-the-line Captain Pierre Douville was a French naval officer who served in the American Revolutionary War and French Revolutionary Wars. Born on present day Prince Edward Island, Douville was deported to France in 1758 as part of the expulsion of the Acadians. He joined the French Navy and lived in Rhode Island during the American Revolutionary War. During the Revolutionary War, he served as a French military intelligence officer who provided General George Washington with British ship and troop movements. Douville also took part in a smuggling mission in 1775, when he brought weapons and gunpowder from the French West Indies to the United States. Douville was one of the original members of the Society of the Cincinnati. Douville died in 1794 after being captured by the British at the Glorious First of June.
