Lieutenant-General Peregrine Lascelles was a British army officer from Yorkshire. Lascelles served in Spain during the War of the Spanish Succession, then spent most of the next thirty years on garrison duty in Scotland and England. During the Jacobite rising of 1745, he fought at the Battle of Prestonpans in September 1745, where his army was defeated in 15 minutes. Although court-martialled, he was exonerated, and promoted to lieutenant-general, serving in North America until 1759. He retired in 1768 and died in 1772.
