This page was originally created for Joseph O'Donnell, a general who fought during the Peninsular War and led the Spanish forces at the Battle of Zújar and the Battle of Castalla (1812). By mistake, the page was changed so that it referred to Joseph O'Donnell (1722-1787) who was the father of the Joseph described on the original page. Joseph Sr. was long in his grave when the Peninsular War (1808-1814) was fought. Joseph Sr. was also the father of General Enrique José O'Donnell, Conde de La Bisbal (1769-1834) and so there is confusion between Joseph and his brother Henry Joseph O'Donnell, Count of La Bisbal. There was even another brother and general named Charles (Carlos)! I plan to restore this page to its original intended purpose, to describe Joseph O'Donnell (1768-1836). I also plan to create a new page for Joseph O'Donnell Sr. (1722-1787). Getting the links and the redirects right may be a problem but I will do my best.
