Chief Petty Officer Rupert Henry TROUT
Royal Navy Died: 01/11/1914 - Age: 40 Military: Unit : HMS Monmouth Action: Coronel Buried : PLYMOUTH NAVAL MEMORIAL Grave Location: 1 Awards : Summary : Masonic Career: Mother Lodge: BRENT No. 1284 Province: Devonshire Initiated: Rank: Passed: Raised: Career Summary : Legend: Summary : Rupert Henry TROUT, Chief Petty Officer, HMS Monmouth HMS Monmouth participated in the Battle of Coronel off the coast of Chile on 1 November 1914. Outmatched and with an inexperienced crew, she was quickly overwhelmed, being unable to use many of her guns due to the stormy weather. Early in the battle, a 21 cm (8.2 inch) shell from SMS Gneisenau penetrated the armour of the forward 6 inch gun turret, destroying it and causing a massive fire on the forecastle. More serious hits followed, and she soon could no longer hold her place in the line of battle. When it was clear that Monmouth was out of action, Gneisenau shifted fire to HMS Good Hope. A short while later, drifting and on fire, Monmouth was attacked by the newly arrived light cruiser SMS N?rnberg which fired seventy-five 10.5 cm (4.1 inch) shells at close range. Monmouth and Good Hope both sank with a combined loss of 1,570 lives. There was no survivor from either ship. At present we have identified 14 Freemasons who were on HMS Monmouth and were lost; POWELL Edward J Artificer WILMER Charles Arcibold Band Sergeant TOMS Dennis Chief Petty Officer TROUT Rupert Henry Chief Petty Officer WESTCOTT John Cooper OWENS Frederick William Edward Corporal HANNAFORD Parnell Electrician COLE T Engine Room Artificer HILL Charles Engine Room Artificer CLARK George E Leading Stoker MAYLE William James Petty Officer DANKS James Crawford Sergeant DAVIS Frederich Albert Sergeant BUTT Montague William Steward In total 33 Freemasons diedat the Battle of Coronel.

Hi I am researching Rupert Henry Trout - he was in the Royal Navy and our church is doing a special presentation of local people who lost their lives in World War 1 from our town. I am trying to find out which medals he was awarded. I just found a bit on Ancestry -but can't access it all
would someone be kind enough to have a quick look for me?
View Record Rupert H Trout year campaign or service View Record R H Trout year campaign or service ship name
both of these under UK Naval medal and Awad Rolls.
My library not open till Friday now ;( -else I would go and look myself
