Lieutenant-Commander (retired) Lionel Arthur Hurst Bisset Maitland-Addison, R.N. (30 December, 1880 – 14 April, 1940) served in the Royal Navy.
Life & Career
The son of Major Arthur Maitland-Addison was born in Kingston, Surrey.[1]
Maitland-Addison was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant with seniority of 30 June, 1903.[2]
In a Court Martial after T.B. 56 capized and was lost while under tow near Damietta on 18 May 1906, Maitland-Addison lost twelve months' seniority and was severely reprimanded and dismissed the ship in the ensuing Court Martial. Gunner Henry Pudifoot was also severely reprimanded and dismissed the ship.[3]
In 1910, Captain Charles William Winnington-Ingram of the first class protected cruiser Argonaut noted that Maitland-Addison was "rather frequently in debt."
After it appears he was thought to have deserted in 1911, Maitland-Addison re-appeared. He was placed on the Retired List due to misconduct on 22 February, 1912 and was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Commander on 30 June, 1912.[4]
In 1919, he was granted permission to take up an appointment at the Ministry of Labour. In 1929, he was awarded a weekly allowance in respect of disablement attributable to Great War service. This is unusual, as his Service Record does not indicate naval service beyond 1911.[5]
