right end of ribbon
World War I served on HMS Indomitable one of three Invincible-class battlecruisers built for the Royal Navy before World War I and had an active career during the war. She tried to hunt down the German ships Goeben and Breslau in the Mediterranean when war broke out and bombarded Turkish fortifications protecting the Dardanelles even before the British declared war on Turkey. She helped to sink the German armoured cruiser Blücher during the Battle of Dogger Bank in 1915 and towed the damaged British battlecruiser HMS Lion to safety after the battle. She damaged the German battlecruisers Seydlitz and Derfflinger during the Battle of Jutland in mid-1916 and watched her sister ship HMS Invincible explode. Deemed obsolete after the war, she was sold for scrap in 1921.

Served on HMS Repulse a 1941 during World War II.

    Citation Detail: Ship HMS Victory is a 104-gun first-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, ordered in 1758, laid down in 1759 and launched in 1765. She is best known for her role as Lord Nelson's flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar on 21 October 1805. She additionally served as Keppel's flagship at Ushant, Howe's flagship at Cape Spartel and Jervis's flagship at Cape St Vincent. After 1824, she was relegated to the role of harbour ship. In 1922, she was moved to a dry dock at Portsmouth, England, and preserved as a museum ship. She has been the flagship of the First Sea Lord since October 2012 and is the world's oldest naval ship still in commission, with 244 years' service as of 2022.,

  20. [S4188] SOURCE (Short): -, Title: Wikipedia - The Free Encyclopedia - Ship Entries, Citation Detail: Ship HMS Indomitable was one of three Invincible-class battlecruisers built for the Royal Navy before World War I and had an active career during the war. She tried to hunt down the German ships Goeben and Breslau in the Mediterranean when war broke out and bombarded Turkish fortifications protecting the Dardanelles even before the British declared war on Turkey. She helped to sink the German armoured cruiser Blücher during the Battle of Dogger Bank in 1915 and towed the damaged British battlecruiser HMS Lion to safety after the battle. She damaged the German battlecruisers Seydlitz and Derfflinger during the Battle of Jutland in mid-1916 and watched her sister ship HMS Invincible explode. Deemed obsolete after the war, she was sold for scrap in 1921.

Launched in 1915, the gunboat saw service in both the First and Second World Wars. Tarantula served with the Tigris flotilla in 1916, retaking a former British gunboat that had previously been captured by the Ottoman Empire. After the First World War, Tarantula was towed to China, joining the China Station, eventually ending up at Trincomalee, Ceylon during the Second World War. After the end of the war, the vessel was sunk as a gunnery target in the Bay of Bengal in 1946.

She entered service in late 1895 with the Channel Fleet, remaining with the fleet through its subsequent reorganisation into the Atlantic Fleet. In 1905, an explosion caused the deaths of 18 men but she remained in service until 1906, after which she underwent a refit. She served with the Home Fleet for most of her pre-war service.

Initially assigned to the Channel Fleet, she spent much of her early career as flagship for the East Indies Station. She was reduced to reserve in 1912 after a lengthy refit before becoming the flagship of the Cape of Good Hope Station in 1913. After the beginning of World War I in August 1914, she spent the first few months of the war escorting convoys around South Africa. In early 1915, she was deployed to German East Africa to blockade the German light cruiser SMS Königsberg. She destroyed a German blockade runner attempting to bring supplies through the blockade in April and sank a German merchant vessel in early 1916. Hyacinth remained on the Cape Station for the rest of the war and was paid off in 1919, although she was not sold for scrap until 1923.

  25. [S4188] SOURCE (Short): -, Title: Wikipedia - The Free Encyclopedia - Ship Entries, Citation Detail: Ship HMS Duncan was the lead ship of the six-ship Duncan class of Royal Navy pre-dreadnought battleships. Built to counter a group of fast Russian battleships, Duncan and her sister ships were capable of steaming at 19 knots (35 km/h; 22 mph), making them the fastest battleships in the world. The Duncan-class battleships were armed with a main battery of four 12-inch (305 mm) guns and they were broadly similar to the London-class battleships, though of a slightly reduced displacement and thinner armour layout. As such, they reflected a development of the lighter second-class ships of the Canopus-class battleship. Duncan was built between her keel laying in July 1899 and her completion in October 1903. Duncan served with the Mediterranean Fleet until 1905, at which she was transferred to the Channel Fleet. During this period, she was damaged in a pair of accidents, the first a collision with HMS Albion in late 1905 and the second when she ran aground off Lundy Island the following year. Duncan served with the Atlantic Fleet from 1907 to late 1908, when she was transferred back to the Mediterranean Fleet. In 1912, she was transferred to the Home Fleet when the Mediterranean Fleet was reorganized into a squadron of it, and the next year she became a gunnery training ship. After the outbreak of the First World War in August 1914, Duncan was being refitted; once she returned to service in September, she joined her sister ships on the Northern Patrol. In 1915, Duncan was transferred to the 9th Cruiser Squadron based in the central Atlantic. Later that year, she was reassigned to the 2nd Detached Squadron to support the Italian Royal Navy, and in 1916 she was sent to Salonika, Greece. There, she took part in operations against Greek royalists who opposed entering the war on the side of the Allies. Duncan returned to Britain in February 1917 and was converted into a barracks ship before being broken up for scrap in 1920.

She was sold for scrap in 1910. The Nelson-class ships were designed as enlarged and improved versions of HMS Shannon to counter the threat of enemy armoured ships encountered abroad. The ships had a length between perpendiculars of 280 feet (85.3 m), a beam of 60 feet (18.3 m) and a deep draught of 25 feet 9 inches (7.8 m). Nelson displaced 7,473 long tons (7,593 t), almost 2,000 long tons (2,000 t) more than Shannon. The steel-hulled ships were fitted with a ram and their crew numbered approximately 560 officers and other ranks.

[S4188] SOURCE (Short): -, Title: Wikipedia - The Free Encyclopedia - Ship Entries, Citation Detail: Ship HMS Albion was a pre-dreadnought battleship of the British Royal Navy and a member of the Canopus class. Intended for service in Asia, Albion and her sister ships were smaller and faster than the preceding Majestic-class battleships, but retained the same battery of four 12-inch (305 mm) guns. She also carried thinner armour, but incorporated new Krupp steel, which was more effective than the Harvey armour used in the Majestics. Albion was laid down in December 1896, launched in June 1898, and commissioned into the fleet in June 1901. Albion spent the first few years of her career abroad on the China Station from 1901 to 1905, before returning to British waters to serve with the Channel Fleet and later the Atlantic Fleet.

  30. [S4188] SOURCE (Short): -, Title: Wikipedia - The Free Encyclopedia - Ship Entries, Citation Detail: Ship HMS Agamemnon was one of two Lord Nelson-class pre-dreadnought battleships launched in 1906 and completed in 1908. She was the Royal Navy's second-to-last pre-dreadnought battleship to be built, followed by her sister ship, Lord Nelson. She was assigned to the Channel Fleet when the First World War began in 1914. The ship was transferred to the Mediterranean Sea with Lord Nelson in early 1915 to participate in the Dardanelles Campaign. She made a number of bombardments against Turkish fortifications and in support of British troops. Agamemnon remained in the Mediterranean after the conclusion of that campaign to prevent the German battlecruiser SMS Goeben and light cruiser Breslau from breaking out into the Mediterranean. Agamemnon shot down the German Zeppelin LZ-55 (LZ-85) during a bombing mission over Salonica in 1916. On 30 October 1918, the Ottoman Empire signed the Armistice of Mudros on board the ship while she was anchored at Lemnos in the northern Aegean Sea. She was converted to a radio-controlled target ship following her return to the United Kingdom in March 1919 and began service in 1921. Agamemnon was replaced by Centurion at the end of 1926 and sold for scrap in January 1927, the last pre-dreadnought in service with the Royal Navy.

  31. [S4188] SOURCE (Short): -, Title: Wikipedia - The Free Encyclopedia - Ship Entries, Citation Detail: Ship HMS Africa was a pre-dreadnought battleship of the Royal Navy, and the penultimate ship of the King Edward VII class. The ship was built by Chatham Dockyard between 1904 and 1906. Armed with a battery of four 12-inch (305 mm) and four 9.2 in (234 mm) guns, she and her sister ships marked a significant advance in offensive power compared to earlier British battleship designs that did not carry the 9.2 in guns. Like all ships of the class (apart from HMS King Edward VII), she was named after an important part of the British Empire, namely Africa. After commissioning in July 1905, she served briefly with the Atlantic Fleet from October to March 1907 before transferring to the Channel Fleet. She then joined the Home Fleet in 1909. Africa participated in tests with shipboard aircraft in January 1912, and she was the first British ship to launch an aeroplane. In mid-1912, she, along with her sister ships, was assigned to the 3rd Battle Squadron, part of the Home Fleet. That year, the squadron went to the Mediterranean Sea during the First Balkan War as part of an international blockade of Montenegro. In 1913, the ship returned to British waters.

Before the First World War, she served with the Home Fleet, generally as the flagship of a cruiser squadron. The ship remained with the Grand Fleet, as the Home Fleet was renamed when the war began, for the entire war, but only participated in a single battle, the Battle of Jutland in May 1916. Shannon spent most of the war unsuccessfully patrolling the North Sea for German warships and commerce raiders. She was paid off in 1919 and sold for scrap in 1922.

Eighth child.
Siblings: John, Bridget, Michael, Mary, Thomas, Judith and James.

Apparently may have emigrated to the U.S.A. with his brother Edward (not found). Address has been reported as possibly being 44 Sylvan Avenue, Waterbury, Connecticut, U.S.A.
Due to the proximity of Dysartbeagh to Castletown it is possible that this John
is the same as that who was married to Miss Kelly on 25/07/1873 and subject of separate record until confirmed.

Note, however, that apparently the same family had a second child they baptised as John in December 1835. Therefore, the first John may have died young and the information above may apply to him.

Cotswolds news:
Woman driving a blue Daihatsu Sirion+ dies after crash near the junction of St Swithuns Road and Rea Lane, Hempsted near Gloucester.
4:54pm Wednesday 13th March 2013 in Cotswolds news By Ian Craig .

A WOMAN has died following a car crash near Gloucester this morning. The 65-year-old woman died after the blue Daihatsu Sirion+ she was driving crashed into a tree near the junction of St Swithuns Road and Rea Lane, Hempsted, at around 9.40am. An off duty paramedic and members of the public performed first aid on the woman, who was from the local area, before the fire and ambulance services arrived. She was taken to Gloucester Royal Hospital but later died. The road was closed for several hours while an investigation was carried out. Police are appealing for anyone who saw the vehicle being driven prior to the collision or the collision itself to call 101, quoting incident 122 of March 13.

Gloucestershire Echo:
Woman, 65, dies after crashing into tree in Hempsted, Gloucester
Thursday, March 14, 2013

AN off-duty paramedic and members of the public tried to save a woman's life after a car crash in Hempsted. The 65-year-old, who has not yet been named, crashed into a tree near the junction of St Swithuns Road and Rea Lane around 9.40am yesterday. The road was closed for several hours while a collision investigation took place.

Yesterday afternoon, the blue Daihatsu Sirion had been removed and a bunch of flowers had been laid at the scene. A police spokesman said an off-duty paramedic and neighbours performed first aid at the scene, before she was taken to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital by paramedics, where she died. Gordon Heath, of St Swithuns Road, said: "I was in my house on the computer when I heard a really loud bang. I came out and saw a car had gone into a tree. I am not sure if she lost control or something had happened for her to lose control."

He said he did not know her but understood her daughter lived nearby. Hempsted Primary School headteacher Sarah Smith said the accident happened after the school day had started.
"It's very sad news and we pass on our condolences to the lady's family," she said. Officers are appealing for anyone who saw the vehicle being driven prior to the collision or the collision itself to call 101, quoting incident 122 of March 13.

    Morning Brian, Thank you for replying. I guess it must be via the Jones family tree. Unfortunately we haven't explored that yet, (I use my nephew - Jonathan Dawson's membership). If it is this line then it will be my paternal grandmother who was born a Jones but came originally from Shropshire. She eventually settled in Ramsgate because my grandfather, uncle and father were all coal miners and, having travelled the country, including Wales, eventually worked in the Kent pits.
    I remember only three Jones family members who lived in Ramsgate, my great uncle Jack and my father's cousins Muriel and Betty. My father was very fond of Betty and I wonder if your mother is Betty's daughter. No need to respond to this but if I've hit the mark I'd be happy to share what I remember with you mother. Apologies if the English doesn't flow - I have one arm in a sling at present.
    Regards Teresa (formerly Kenhard so not related through the Clarks)
