Hello again,
we all cherish the story of Ida and Isidor Straus who didn’t want to part and went down with the ship together. It’s of course a heartbreaking story.
But do we know if they actually tried to save themselves before making this decision? Was Isidor prohibited from entering several...
Just north of Casselton, outside of Amenia, is a small cemetery with a large monument in the middle. It honors the memory of one of this region's biggest Bonanza farm couple who just happened to be on board the Titanic 110 years ago.
Bookended by the quiet Rush River and a freshly planted...

There's a certain sequence in James Cameron's sweeping romance "Titanic" about the famed maritime disaster that never fails to make me sob uncontrollably — choking, ugly sobs. On April 15, 1912, the "unsinkable" ship of dreams collided with an iceberg during its maiden voyage from Southampton to...
Hello all!
I'm researching about a couple from the Western States that Lightoller mentioned in his testimonies. They were from Second Class. When he asked the girl if he could put her into a lifeboat, she refused. I think I know who they were, but he mentioned he found them sitting on a fan...
I have a question. If a third class couple were married, with no children, would they be berthed together or separately? I understand single women had cabins in the stern, while singe men had cabins in the bow. I've also heard that even families traveling with children would be in segregated...
Since there was no separate sub-forum for 'Religion' during the era, I decided to post the question here. Also, not being a Christian myself, I don't know the answer and I hope no one is offended.
Back during the Edwardian era, would it have been possible for a young British couple with deep...
Who was your favorite couple on Titanic or who do you think would've been a good couple on Titanic?
I think Jack Thayer and Margaret Graham would've been a good couple.
How many instances were there of a husband and wife couple being on the Titanic being saved in separate lifeboats?
Of course, I know of the famous case of William and Lucile Carter in Lifeboats #4 and Collapsible C respectively. Any others?
Does anybody know who was that couple in ANTR that got advice from Mr. Andrews and got crushed by the falling funnel? Or were they just fictional characters?
Hey,
in another thread, Daniel Rosenshine said: "R. W. Smith had a travelling companion, Mrs. Nicholls, who only went as far as Queenstown (Craig Stringer is to thank for this info). Nicholls and Smith were acquainted with Fr. Browne so that's why the couple may have been a subject for his...
In many places it is written that Millet lived with Archibald Butt and another man named (I believe) Blanton Winship, c. 1910-11. Accounts of this have given me the impression that all three were bachelors at the time. However, I know that in 1879 or so, Millet married Elizabeth Merrill and had...
I'm currently trying to find out more information on a young couple who were on the Titanic. Here are the facts I have to go on:
- They were a young couple from the United States honeymooning for approx. 4 months in Europe.
- The wife was put into a lifeboat, but the husband went down with...

Hi, I am of origin Quebecoise (Quebec), therefore jai much of misery has to translate into English, I would thus require of you to be lenient with me. By consulting the list of the number of cabins, of the stewart, Herbert Cave, i seen that the Cavendish couple, Tyrell William, Julia , and their...
According to Bride's testimony, not long before he and Phillips abandoned the cabin, a couple came into the wireless shack, and he gave the woman a glass of water. Was this woman Rosa Abbott?
Thanks and regards

I was wondering who the elderly couple standing at the aft end of A-Deck Promenade.
I think that it may be the Strausses, but I am not sure. It could be someone else. Please help.

All,
Those of you Titanic passenger-list experts out there - and there are several I know - can hopefully clear up a question I have.
From my limited knowledge of Titanic's people, apart from the obvious ones, I know of only 2 - possibly 3 - British couples in First Class.
There are the...
