Biographical information:Oliver Hazard Perry, born in Rock Brook, R.I., was the oldest son of a distinguished naval officer, Christopher Raymond Perry (1761-1818). Oliver entered the navy at age 14, serving under his father in the West Indies and in the Tripolitan War. He became a lieutenant in 1807 and at the outbreak of the War of 1812 was given command of the naval force on Lake Erie. In March, 1813, he began building a fleet at his headquarters at Erie, Pennsylvania. Perry engaged the British fleet under the command of Robert H. Barclay on September 10, winning the battle decisively. The Battle of Lake Erie made Perry an instant hero, although he was soon involved in a controversy over the role played by Captain Jesse D. Elliot in the encounter. For the remainder of the war Perry worked closely with General Harrison, participating in the recovery of Detroit and in the battle of the Thames. From 1814 to 1817 he commanded the Java in the Mediterranean. Perry was sent on a diplomatic mission to Venezuela in 1819, and on the return voyage he died of yellow fever.
