stratasfan Posted August 19, 2021 Share #1 Posted August 19, 2021 Hi, All! Need some help with this odd question. I was just adding some info to a Find A Grave memorial, and going through the Navy Registers and getting the info on this Machinist. In 1905 and 06, he is stationed on the "Lawton". I tried looking it up online, but all I got was Godzilla myths. Anyone able to help me with the real story of what the Lawton was? Thanks in advance! Elizabeth Here is the info I was compiling: Died of Lobar Pneumonia at the US Naval Hospital in Brooklyn, NY. Residence: 197 Madison Ave., New York. Originally interred at Cypress Hills National Cemetery, NY. Removed to Arlington, 11 Nov 1920. US Navy Registers: 1901 - Appointed Warrant Machinist 1904 - Warrant Machinist / Cruiser USS Buffalo 1905 - Warrant Machinist / USS Lawton, 10 Dec 1903 (Signal: 4171) 1906 - Warrant Machinist / USS Lawton (Signal: 4169) 1909 - Warrant Machinist (Signal: FNCV) 1910 - Chief Machinist / Naval Station, Charleston, SC 1911 - Chief Machinist / USS Iowa 1912 - Chief Machinist, Ret, Abroad, Mass Nautical Training School, Boston, Mass. 1913 - Ret.
