Stringer Lawrence Major - General Stringer Lawrence ( 6 March 1697 – 10 January 1775 ) was an English soldier , the first Commander - in - Chief , India , sometimes regarded as the " Father of the Indian Army " . Lawrence was born at Hereford . He seems to have entered the army in 1727 and served in Gibraltar and Flanders , subsequently taking part in the battle of Culloden . In 1748 , with the rank of major and the reputation of an experienced soldier , he went out to India to command the East India Company ' s troops . Dupleix ' s schemes for the French conquest of southern India were on the point of taking effect , and not long after his arrival at Fort St David , Stringer Lawrence was actively engaged . He successfully foiled an attempted French surprise at Cuddalore , but subsequently was captured by a French cavalry patrol at Ariancopang ( Ariankuppam ) while leading forces advancing on Pondicherry ( which was then besieged by Admiral Edward Boscawen ) , and kept prisoner till the peace of Aix - la - Chapelle . In 1749 he was in command at the capture of Devicota . On this occasion Clive served under him and a lifelong friendship began . On one occasion , when Clive had become famous , he honored the creator of the Indian army by refusing to accept a sword of honour unless one was voted to Lawrence also . In 1750 Lawrence returned to England , but in 1752 he was back in India . Here he found Clive in command of a force intended for the relief of Trichinopoly . As senior officer Lawrence took over the command , but was careful to allow Clive every credit for his share in the subsequent operations , which included the relief of Trichinopoly and the surrender of the entire French besieging force . In 1752 with an inferior force he defeated the French at Bahur ( Behoor ) and in 1753 again relieved Trichinopoly . For the next seventeen months he fought a series of actions in defence of this place , finally arranging a three months ' armistice , which was afterwards converted into a conditional treaty . He had commanded in chief up to the arrival of the first detachment of regular forces of the crown . In 1757 he served in the operations against Wandiwash , and in 1758 - 1759 was in command of Fort St George during the siege by the French under Lally . In 1759 failing health compelled him to return to England . He resumed his command in 1761 as major - general and commander - in - chief . Clive supplemented his old friend ' s inconsiderable income by settling on him an annuity of £500 a year . In 1765 he presided over the board charged with arranging the reorganization of the Madras army and he finally retired the following year . He died in London . The East India Company erected a monument to his memory in Westminster Abbey . A statue of him , dressed in classical Roman Army uniform , stands in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the Haldon Belvedere ( Lawrence Castle ) built to his memory by the Palk family was erected on Haldon Hill , near Exeter , Devon . There is also a memorial to him in nearby Dunchideock church .
