General Notes: As per notes from Ann Rogers: John drowned off coast of Turkey whil e in the Navy. As per information from Will Winsor. Navarino, battl e of Pronounced As: n'e4v'e4rno , 1827, naval battle resulting from th e interventi on of the European powers in the Greek War of Independenc e from the Ottom an Empire (Turkey). England , France, and Russia ha d demanded an armistice in the Greek -Turkish warfare. The Turks refus ed to bring the fighting to a halt, and the three European powers sen t their fleets to stop Egyptian reinforcements for the Turks from land ing in Greece. In Sept., 1827, a large Egyptian fleet, with troop tran sports, commanded by Ibrahim Pasha, landed at Navarino (now Pylos). Th e allied fleet commander, Admiral Sir Edward Codrington, persuaded Ibr ahim to await further instructions from his father, Muhammad Ali of Eg ypt. When the Greeks continued operations, Ibrahim disregarded his agr eement; thereupon the allied ships entered (Oct.) the harbor and destr oyed the bottled-up Egyptian fleet. The destruction of the fleet helpe d bring about the withdrawal (1828) of Muhammad Ali from the war in Gr eece. Bibliography: See study by C.M. Woodhouse 1965 On 19 Septembe r 1807, Russia made its departure from the Mediterranean. The Tilsit T reaty put an end to the Russian fleet's brief but significant stay of f Corfu. With ten ships of the line and three frigates, Vice-Admiral S enyavin proceeded through the Straits of Gibraltar to the Baltic. Wit h six ships of the line, four frigates and small cruisers , Commodor e Baratynsky remained in Corfu to officially transfer control of the i sland to the French. In the early spring of 1826, the new Emperor of R ussia, Nicholas I, recalled the disgraced Senyavin, promoted him to th e rank of full admiral and charged him to lead a squadron consisting o f nine ships of the line, seven frigates, one corvet and four briganti nes, and to join the British and French fleets in an attempt to help t he Greeks throw off the yoke of Ottoman oppression. On 8 August 1827 , Senyavin reached Portsmouth. From there he turned back to the Baltic , leaving behind a squadron of four ships of the line, four frigates a nd five small cruisers under Rear Admiral Login Geiden. On 1 October , off the Ionian Islands, British Vice-Admiral Edward Codringt on too k command of the combined squadron of three fleets. The Allied Armad a then proceeded to the Bay of Navarino. In the Bay of Navarino the I bragim Pasha's Turkish-Egyptian Fleet-the Turkish squadrons under th e command of Tagir Pasha, the Egyptian force under Mukharem Bey-sat wa iting for the allies with three ships of the line, 23 frigates, 42 cor vettes, fifteen brigs and 50 transports. The entrance to the bay was g uarded by 145 cannon mounted on coastal batteries. The Turks had a ski llful advisor, the Frenchman Letellieu. Letellieu suggested a clever b attle plan to Admirals Tagir and Muharem. The Turkish ships would for m a giant horseshoe with their ships of the line and frigates, subject ing the attacking allied fleet to withering cross-fire. In the meantim e, the allies sent an ultimatum to Ibragim Pasha demanding an end to c ombat operations against the Greeks. The Turks rejected the ultimatum , using Ibragim's absence as an excuse. Then Codrington, Geiden and Fr ench commander de Reney resolved to cast anchor at Navarino, directl y opposite the Turkish-Egyptian fleet, and force the Turks to submit t o the allied demands by a massive demonstration of force. On 8 Octobe r 1827, the allied vessels proceeded into the Bay of Navarino at noon . Following Codrington aboard the 80-gun Asia, the British ships forme d the vanguard. The French sailed behind the British. With his flag o n the 74-gun Azov, Admiral Geiden sailed behind and to the left of th e British. As soon as the Asia had dropped anchor and lowered a boat w ith an envoy, the Turks opened fire. Codrington ordered immediate reta liation and the battle began. The Azov, commanded by Captain Mikhail L azarev, sailed towards the center of the battle line. Two large enem y frigates and a corvette were damaged and sunk by the Azov's fire. Tw o more vessels, the admiral 's frigate and a ship of the line, caugh t fire and exploded. The Azov herself was riddled with 153 holes; th e Russian seamen aboard the Gangut, Ezekiel and Castor distinguished t hemselves in battle though their ships we re also badly damaged. The a llied forces supported each other during the course of battle. The Azo v supported the Asia in a duel with Muharem Bey's 96-gun ship, and th e French Breslau, in its turn, assisted the flagship of the Russian sq uadron. Within four hours the Battle of Navarino ended with the comple te routing of the Turkish-Egyptian fleet, which had lost all its ship s of the line, 22 frigates and 7,000 sailors. Only one battered frigat e and fifteen small cruisers survived. Not all the allied government s were pleased with such a victory. Because of his role in supportin g the Russian fleet, the British condemned some of Codrington's decisi ons. The complete annihilation of the Turkish-Egyptian fleet was regar ded, in a sense, as disadvantageous because it further strengthened Ru ssia's position in the Mediterranean. Shortly after the battle Admira l Codrington was recalled to London. The Russian Emperor, however, wa s more appreciative. All three allied admirals were awarded the Cros s of St. George and Lazarev was promoted to Rear Admiral. The Azov wa s granted a newly established decoration, the Ensign of St. George . A ccording to tradition, this ensign could be passed on to other vessel s named in honor of the Azov. The Russian squadron recovered from th e battle and repaired its ships at Malta. Following the outbreak of th e Russian-Turkish War of 1828-1829, Vice-Admiral Geiden took Rear Admi ral Pyotr Rikord's detachment under his command. The squadron now numb ered eight ships of the line, seven frigates, one corvette and six bri gs. Geiden and Rikord managed to blockade the Dardanelles and impede t he Turkish fleet's operations against the Greeks. On 21 April 1828, Li eutenant- Commander Ivan Sytin, aboard the 36-gun frigate Castor, capt ured the 20-gun Egyptian corvette Star of the East off the fortress o f Madon. In January the Egyptian corvette Lioness and the brig Kandi a were captured off Crete by Captain Ivan Butakov's ship Tsar Konstant in. After the war's end, Geiden's squadron returned to the Baltic, lea ving Rikord behind with a detachment of seven ships. In the summer o f 1833 this detachment also returned to Russia.
