Certainly 1st lieutenant 1781 to 1783, I have no record of a commission as 3rd lieutenant though.

According to John Sugden in Nelson, A Dream of Glory, 1758-1797, Martin Hinton served as Third Lieutenant (1781) , then First Lieutenant, (1781-1783) in HMS Albermarle under Nelson in the North American Station.
