About Godert de Ginkell, 1st Earl of Athlone

Godard van Reede, 1st Earl of Athlone was a Dutch States Army officer who rose to prominence during the Williamite War in Ireland. During the Franco-Dutch War, his bravery and meticulous execution of duties as a cavalry officer caught William of Orange's attention. Rapid promotions followed, and in 1691, he was entrusted with command of the war in Ireland. Alongside Waldeck and Schomberg, Athlone became one of the few senior officers to whom William granted independent command over the Anglo-Dutch forces during his wars.
