Charles Herbert Pierrepont, 2nd Earl Manvers (11 August 1778 – 27 October 1860) was an English nobleman and naval officer, the second son of Charles Pierrepont, 1st Earl Manvers. Pierrepont entered the Royal Navy as a midshipman, and was made lieutenant on 10 March 1797, and on 11 August the same year commander of Kingfisher, a brig mounting 18 six-pounder guns, with a complement of 120 men. In her he captured the Lynx of 10 guns and 70 men, and also:
• On 15 September 1797 he captured the French privateer lugger Espoir of 2 guns and 39 men.• On 8 January 1798, while about 150 nautical miles (280 km; 170 mi) west of the Burlings, he captured the Betsey, a French privateer ship of 16 guns and 118 men. She surrendered, having 9 men killed and wounded, while Kingsfisher had only 1 man wounded.• On 26 May 1798 off Vigo, he captured the Spanish privateer lugger Avantivia Ferrolina, mounting one long gun and four swivels, with a crew of 26.
He was promoted to post-captain into the 74-gun Spartiate on 24 December 1798, and Kingfisher was taken over by his former first lieutenant, Frederick Maitland. Pierrepont returned to England in July 1799. He was subsequently appointed to the 40-gun frigate Dédaigneuse, but resigned his command following the death of his elder brother Evelyn in October 1801. He officially retired from the Navy in 1803. Pierrepont took over his brother's seat as Member of Parliament for Nottinghamshire. He became a deputy lieutenant of the county in 1803. In 1806, his father was created Earl Manvers, and Charles was styled Viscount Newark. He remained an MP until 1816, when he succeeded to the Earldom.
