Charles Cattaway’s final entry in Chailey’s Parish
Magazine appears in November 1916 which repeats the October 1915 information.
HMS Juno was an Eclipse Class, Second Class
Protected Cruiser which was launched in 1897.
Between 1903 and 1905 all ships in this class (with the exception of HMS
Eclipse), were re-armed with 11 6 inch guns which replaced the older 6 inch and
4.7 inch armament.
During the First World War, Juno formed part
of the 11th Cruiser Squadron, Ireland . In July 1915 it was stationed in the Persian Gulf and in 1918 in North
America and the West Indies . It was sold for scrap in 1920.
I have been unable to locate this man’s naval
service record at The National Archives in London .
