John Travers Cornwell, known aboard ship as Jack Cornwell, was born in Leyton, Essex, on 8th January, 1900, and joined the Royal Navy as a boy sailor, and on 31st May 1916, served on the HMS Chester during the Battle of Jutland. Cornwell was mortally wounded early in the battle but remained at his post, awaiting orders, until battle ceased. Transferred to a hospital at Immingham near Grimsby, Cornwell died from his wounds on 2nd June and, after initial hesitation by the Navy Board, was posthumously awarded the Victoria Cross. Cornwell is buried at the City of London Cemetery, Manor Park, London.
