Lieutenant-General Stafford Lightburne (died 27 September 1827) was an Anglo-Irish British Army officer who served in the American and French Revolutionary Wars, before becoming a general officer during the Napoleonic Wars. Lightburne was mentioned in dispatches by Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany for his service at the Battle of Tournay in 1794, before commanding the 53rd Regiment of Foot in the West Indies. After serving as a staff officer in Ireland, Lightburne was given command of a brigade in the Peninsular War in 1809, during which year he was present at the Battle of Busaco. He was subsequently dismissed from his position in ignominious but obscure circumstances by Lieutenant-General Lord Wellington in 1810. Lightburne received no further employment in the army after this, but was promoted to lieutenant-general in 1813. Little is known about his personal life.
