halifax

Does anyone have any information on this voyage? My parents and I travelled to a new life in Canada at that time. Ideas where to research would be welcome also. Thanks Toni

Apparently, the shoes belonging to the "Unknown Child" Eino Panula have been put on display at Halifax Maritime Museum, after they were rescued by a policeman guarding the morgue in 1912 after hearing that victims' clothes were about to be burned...

i dont really know where to put this, but does anyone know the source of the stone that was used for the victims gravestones?

Fellow ET-ers: I've just found that I'll be traveling to Halifax on July 2, a mere 2 weeks away, for 5 days. I probably won't have enough time between now and then to research where the Titanic cemetery is and how to get there, tho I expect local folk there could certainly help me when I...

Hi everyone. This is my first posting, I hope I don't mess things up! Anyway, here in the UK was a TV prog on 13/03/03 concerning the opening of 3 graves (1 the 'unknown child' & the other 2 unidentified bodies) & DNA sampling against possible living relatives. As we all know, the little child...

I've always been very doubtful with the fact that the sinking of the Titanic is only due to a starboard site contact with the iceberg. This theory is usually admitted by the majority and shown in detail in the movie "Titanic". The discovery of the wreck permits some examination of the bow's...

Hello everyone, I receantly learned that there are going to be an investigation on one Titanic cemetery in Halifax. They are going to exhume the remains of three unknown victims; one woman in her 30s, a young man and a baby; marked No 281, No 240 and No 4. It has partly been arranged by a...

I will be visiting the Halifax, Nova Scotia grave sites this Easter Sunday and 89th anniversary of the sinking, and if anyone out there wishes me to say a few words or a poem for a specific grave or to all of the passengers and crew, just send me an email. [email protected] Happy...

I found this site to be very interesting. It has a cemetery plot and you just click on the box to bring up information about the person buried in that particular grave. http://web.archive.org/web/20001204230300/http://www.execpc.com/~reva/html3b.htm
