French ship Génois (1805)

The Génois was a 74-gun ship of the line of the French Navy, launched in 1805. She was built at Genoa, hence her name which translates to "Genoese" in French. The Génois participated in several naval engagements of the Napoleonic Wars. Her career was relatively short, lasting until she was captured or otherwise removed from service. Specific details of her service, such as individual battles and her eventual fate, require further research to provide a comprehensive account. The lack of publicly accessible and verifiable records for all ships of this era makes a full history challenging to compile.
