Fate

'British Vessels Lost at Sea' lists the steamship Kerry Range as being attacked, but not sunk, by a submarine on June 11th, 1917 (records show that she was ultimately torpedoed and sunk during the Second World War). However, the West Hartlepool Roll of Honour lists Reginald Cyril Johnson, a Cadet, aged 18, of 75, Chester Road, West Hartlepool, as being lost on this date, but as yet there is no other information to confirm this.
