Hanes bywgraffyddol
Clive’s military service with the Company dates from the French capture of Madras in September 1746 two years after his arrival in India. Following his first commission in 1747 as an ensign in the Company’s own forces, he served successively as a lieutenant and captain before being commissioned in 1755 as a lieutenant-colonel in the regular army. It was in this latter capacity that he completed his career in 1767 as commander-in-chief and Governor of Bengal.

The group consists, for the most part, of papers, [c. 1750’s]-1771, connected with the general routine military administration but also includes some papers, 1756, relating to Clive’s own active service. Being few in number however, they provide only a fragmentary record of his military role with little for the early years of his service and his first governorship (1758-1760), but slightly more for his second administration (1765-1767). A few papers, dated 1764 and 1771, refer to events that occurred when Clive was not in India but are, nonetheless, pertinent to his service there.
