John W. Jubb attested for the Manchester Regiment at the outbreak of the Great War and was posted to the 1/9th (Ashton) Battalion, Manchester Regiment, Territorial Force. Deployed to Gallipoli, he disembarked with the Battalion at Sedd-El-Bahr (”V” Beach), Cape Helles, on 9 May 1915, and witnessed extensive action in the front line trenches with “A” Company; most notably a fierce two day engagement from 7-8 August 1915 at Krithia where Jubb was wounded in the neck. A stream of bullets also succeeded in destroying the contents of his haversack:
‘On looking inside I found the old sleeping cap practically torn to ribbons, but I still hang on to it. You will remember the waistcoat I left home with, the light one, that has also got three holes through all the pockets...’ (A letter from Jubb to his parents refers, as published in the contemporary press)
Having further survived the extremes of summer heat, the disease, and latterly, the biting cold, Judd was killed in action in the final weeks of the campaign when shot through the head on 16 December 1915. An article published in The Reporter on 8 January 1916, notes:
‘Had Many Escapes – Dukinfield Man Killed at Gallipoli.
Private 1829 John William Jubb, 1/9th Battalion, Manchester Regiment, son of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Jubb, of 15, Bates Street, off Russell Street, Dukinfield, is reported to have been killed in the Dardanelles on December 16th. The sad news was contained in the following letter to his mother:- “Dear Madam, May I express the deepest sympathy of the Brigade and of myself with you in the loss of your brave son, Private J. W. Jubb. He was killed early this morning while in the discharge of his duty in the forward firing trench. Death, it may comfort you to know, was entirely without pain, as it was instantaneous, the bullet wound being in the head. Midday today I laid him to rest in a beautiful little soldier’s cemetery near the summit of a hill slope that forms one side of a ravine known as the Borden Ravine... Believe me, madam, there is abundant cause for pride and trust in the manner of your hero son’s passing, and may the consolation of Christ be with you. Yours very faithfully, C. E. Raymond, C.F., C.E., Chaplain, 126th Brigade.”’
Jubb is buried in Azmak Cemetery, Suvla, Turkey.
