The published Naval General Service Medal rolls confirm John Hughes as an Able Seaman aboard the Talbot for the Battle of Navarino on 20.10.1827 and in the same rate aboard the Castor for the operations off Syria in late 1840. Four men, however, with the same names, were entitled to single 'Syria' clasps.
