Charles Clemo married Hettie Hayes in 1895 and soon after their son Charles Reginald was christened at St Elwyns Church in Hayle later that year moved to Devonport. Charles joined the Royal Navy where he attained the rank of Petty Officer and served on HMS Lion which fought at the Battle of Jutland in 1916.
According to Peter's Cornwall Genealogy Site, they were living at Charles Clemo in 5 Beatrice Avenue, Keyham, Devonport in 1911, so it's highly likely that my grandfather Richard James (Jim) Clemo (b. 1898) and his younger brother Leonard (b.1908) were also born there.
