The following information was found at: www.history.navy.mil/library/online/yangtze.html
Annual Reports of the Navy Department for the Fiscal Year 1920
Asiatic Fleet Comprises 26 Vessels -- The Asiatic Fleet, under command of Admiral Albert Gleaves, who, after his notable service as chief of the Cruiser and Transport Force, was assigned to this important duty, now comprises 26 vessels, including 8 destroyers, as follows:
Division 1, Huron (flagship), {NOTE from Frank Tavener: New name given to the South Dakota on 7 June 1920.} New Orleans, Albany; Division 2 (south China patrol), Helena, Pampanga; Division 3 (Yangtze Kiang patrol), Wilmington (flagship), Elcano, Villalobos, Quiros, Palos, Monocacy.
Destroyer Division 13: Tarbell, Yarnall, Upshur [Avel. P.], Greer, Elliot, Lea.
Auxiliaries: Ajax, Piscataqua, Abarenda, Pompey, General Alava, Sara Thompson, Genesee, and station ships.
Mine detachment (destroyers): Hart, Rizal.

Visited Various Islands and Ports -- Admiral Gleaves, who has fully measured up to the naval and diplomatic duties imposed upon him, on his way to the Asiatic Station last year in his flagship the South Dakota (renamed the Huron), visited the Gallapagos and Marquesas Islands, Tahiti and Samoa, and later made a trip to the southern Philippines to familiarize himself with the conditions there. Last December he visited Japan and China, and in both countries was cordially received by the naval authorities.

Protecting Americans in the Orient -- The Asiatic fleet has pursued its duties of protecting American lives and property in the Orient. When Vladivostok was thrown into disorder by the overthrow of the local government last January, the South Dakota and the Albany assisted in preserving order, and these vessels were stationed there during the evacuation of American troops from Siberia, where they had been engaged in protecting a portion of the Trans-Siberian Railway. In March Admiral Gleaves again visited Japan, his flagship returning in April to relieve the Albany, which engaged in target practice and established a summer base at Chefoo.

{NOTE from Frank Tavener: Between the visit to Japan in the preceeding paragaph -- where he was listed in the 27 March 1920 Census -- and the events in the following paragraph, Samuel Ferguson had died, and was buried in the family plot in New Jersey. However, I haven't found out yet if he was still in the Navy when he died.)

Vessels Engaged in Target Practice -- The Yangtze Patrol, plus the Helena, was assembled off Woosung, and held practice during May, with the exception of the Palos, required for patrol duty on the upper Yangtze. The South Dakota, Albany, New Orleans, destroyer division 13, and the Rizal assembled at Cheefoo during the latter part of May and early June. All vessels completed short-range battle practice, and also director practice, except the Upshur and Elliot, required for patrol duty on the Yangtze.
  27 M iii Thomas William Ferguson was born on 10 Jun 1900 in Essex County, New Jersey. He died on 19 Jun 1900 in New Jersey.

NOTE by Frank J. Tavener: According to what my father -- Henry Clay Tavener (Jr.) -- told me, my grandfather officially changed the spelling of his surname by dropping one "n". But, as of this posting, I haven't found any documents proving this name change. However, all the documents that I have in my possession -- filled out by my grandfather -- are spelled with one "n". This includes his marriage certificate at age 25.

The following information was copied directly from the indicated book by Teresa Fordyce, and forwarded to me by e-mail (Frank Tavener).
