Captain Philip Thicknesse (1719 - 23 November 1792) was an English author, eccentric, and friend of the artist Thomas Gainsborough. Thicknesse visited the Colony of Georgia in September 1736, but returned to England in 1737, claiming to be the first of the emigrants to return. He obtained a commission as a Captain of an independent company in Jamaica after 1737, and on an expedition against Jamaican Maroons in the Blue Mountains, he wrote in his autobiography of encounters with Windward Maroon leaders Quao and Queen Nanny. He transferred to a marine regiment as a Captain-Lieutenant in 1740. He was Lieutenant-Governor of Landguard Fort, Suffolk (1753-1766).
