== Tahun-tahun awal ==
Ernest Townsend dilahirkan di Parliament Street, Derby, termuda dari lima bersaudara anak James Townsend. Ayahnya adalah seorang ''coachbuilder'' (pembuat badan kendaraan bermotor) di Holmes of Derby (sekarang Sanderson & Holmes). Pekerjaan ini adalah pekerjaan tiga generasi di keluarga Townsend. Kakek Ernest, William Townsend pindah ke Derby dari [[Bitton]], Gloucestershire pada akhir tahun 1850-an. Pada usia delapan tahun, pengasuh Ernest adalah kakak perempuannya.<ref name="stanton">{{en}} {{cite journal|last=Stanton|first=Richard|title=The Search Continues: Artists of 1912|journal=Journal of Olympic History|year=2002|month=Dec-Jan|volume=10|pages=79|url=http://www.la84foundation.org/SportsLibrary/JOH/JOHv10n1/JOHv10n1u.pdf|ref=stanton}}</ref>

==Kembali ke Derby==
<!--
In 1907, he left London. After some time in [[Paris]] and the [[Netherlands]], he returned to Derby, where he had a studio in Full Street, living in nearby [[Coxbench]]. In 1912, Townsend, like his friends, Alfred Munnings and Laura Knight, represented Great Britain in the [[Olympic Games]] in [[Stockholm]] by entering a painting in the [[Art competitions at the 1912 Summer Olympics|Olympic Art exhibition]].<ref name="stanton"
At the age of 25, Townsend was commissioned to paint his former headmaster at the School of Art, T.C. Simmonds. This painting was later accepted by the Royal Academy for its 1910 Summer Exhibition. Perhaps it was this success that led to another commission from the Town for a portrait of the Libraries Museum and Art Gallery Director, William Crowther, upon his [[retirement]] in 1911. Many more "official" commissions were to come from the Town for the remainder of Townsend's life; a succession of mayoral portraits<ref name="potter"/> can be seen in the Council chamber today.

Townsend's 1915 portrait of the Right Hon. [[Winston Churchill]] when he was First Lord of the Admiralty was commissioned anonymously. This picture now hangs in the [[National Liberal Club]] in London, but it was not hung until 1944. Churchill had been unavailable to unveil it in 1915, and when he was available, he was no longer popular in the Liberal Club. The portrait was mothballed and retrieved for public viewing only following Churchill's success in 1944, when he was belatedly asked to unveil it.<ref name="churchill"></ref>

=== The Derby Sketching Club ===
<!--
It was at the Sketching Club that he met Peter Campbell and his son Percy. Peter had moved from [[Stockton-on-Tees]] to work for the Bemrose Company as a commercial artist, although he later went freelance. Campbell produced much work for the [[Midland Railway]]. The friendship led to Ernest being invited to the Campbells' home on Havelock Road in Derby, which was then almost in the country. The three men shared an interest not only in art, but in amateur music. In this they were joined by Peter's daughter, Doris, who was an accomplished pianist to her father's violin and Townsend's baritone. Doris was also a member of the Sketching Club.<ref name=carn>{{en}} {{cite web |url=http://www.picturethepast.org.uk/frontend.php?keywords=Ref_No_increment;EQUALS;DMAG200156&pos=2&action=zoom |title=Hospital Carnival Day, Derby |publisher=Picture the Past |accessdate=19 February 2011}}</ref> Townsend married Doris Campbell on 30th December 1912 at St James' Church in [[Clapham]].
