(For other ships with the same name, see HMS Cornelia.) HMS Cornelia was a Royal Navy 32-gun fifth-rate frigate, launched in 1808 at South Shields. Cornelia joined the service in 1808, under the command of Captain Henry Folkes Edgell and in 1810 was deployed to the squadron at the Cape of Good Hope. In the autumn, she joined the invasion fleet under Admiral Albemarle Bertie that executed the successful Invasion of Ile de France in November 1810. Command then passed to William Fitzwilliam Owen, who commanded her during the invasion of the Dutch East Indies in 1811, and the capture of Java that year. In 1813, Cornelia returned from the Far East escorting a convoy from China and was paid-off on her return. In 1814 she was placed in reserve at Woolwich and never served at sea again.
