What is recorded here
Laval Nugent von Westmeath is a birthplace in County Wicklow, Ireland. Perhaps the soil there still remembers the first breath of a soldier who would live through two centuries of change. Maybe the wind carries echoes of marches he led across difficult ground. Imagine a young man standing at that spot, looking out over land he would defend with his whole life.
Why this person is known: Irish soldier (1777-1862)
