    News Did Winnipeg name any streets after Titanic victims?

    Later this month, on April 15, is the 110th anniversary of the sinking of the RMS Titanic off the coast of Newfoundland. It has often been said that several Winnipeg streets were named for local victims in the aftermath of the tragedy — but that does not appear to be the case...

    The bodies in Collapsible A

    When Fifth Officer Lowe commandeering lifeboat #14 helped 12 survivors out of the damaged and waterlogged Collapsible A, there were supposed to have been 3 more people on board, but sadly deceased by then. I understand that the bodies were left adrift in the boat. I believe one of the three...

    Answered Last bodies recovered

    Were the three bodies recovered by the Montmagny on 10 May in a boat? If so, which one. I cannot see that the bodies would still be recoverable a month after the sinking otherwise.

    Putting an End to an Argument

    Now I know this is probably a really stupid idea... But I just can't seem to shake it. As I'd imagine most of us know, no physical bodies remain in the wreck site and it has caused a bit of debate between people when it comes to the wreck itself (Viewing the wreck as a Gravesite or as a...

    A question about deaths in lifeboats

    In a discussion on another forum, the question was raised of how many people, if any, died in the lifeboats as a result of the cold air, or due to being splashed with seawater. I've read that Carpathia buried four to six survivors at sea, but haven't found any information on causes of death. And...

    If you could save just ONE Titanic victim....

    All other events being exactly the same, if you had the capacity to save just ONE Titanic victim, who would that be and why? Can be passenger or crew. Oddly enough, my own choice would be Michel Navratil. I am fascinated by the Navratil children's story and cannot help wishing that their father...

    More officers as Titanic victims

    In the event that more officers on the Titanic perished on the Titanic for some reason [and for the sake of discussion and lifeboats, we keep every survivor who was not an officer or a sailor on the Titanic the same], would they have been considered as suicide suspects ? And, what would be the...

    Survivor or victim?

    Almost all books and websites place Col. Gracie among the Titanic survivors. But he was a diabetic, and in the night that Titanic sank he severely suffered from hypothermia and physical injuries. His health declined so much that he still died eight months after the disaster. So actually his...
