The destroyer Abbott ( ship No. DD-184) , which was transferred to the British Royal Navy and renamed the Charleston , was a destroyer built by the United States Navy and was the No. 110 ship of the Vickers class destroyer . She was the first ship to US warships in the name of Abbott, to commemorate the War of 1812 era naval officer Zoe Abbott (Joel Abbot). Abbott followed Marsh Perry to lead the black ship to Japan.
The Abbott started construction at the Newport News shipyard in 1918 and went into service in the same year. He served in 1919 when the First World War ended. Later, the Abbott was sent to the Atlantic on duty and retired in 1922. After the outbreak of the Second World War, the Abbott was re-enrolled in 1940 and transferred to Britain under the lease law , renamed Charleston. The Charleston was responsible for the escort of merchant ships. In 1944 Charleston was accidentally damaged by a collision and he retired early in 1945. Charleston was sold for dismantling in 1947.
