I have not come across any photos of her though I have one of her father. As to George's comments about valuables and clothing of Lucile's surviving. Other than the kimono there is very little actually. The fur coat and lifejacket have disappeared and only the robe and a small jewelry bag are left. None of Lucile's jewelry has survived except for her wedding ring which one of her great-granddaughters wears today.
Thanks Randy. They have pictures of them at the University of California (Berkeley), including one of the baby. But it's a hassle going there, ordering the photo albums, and wearing white gloves while you go through them. Hoping to avoid having to do that again.
In fact, the 8 April 1912 death of Mrs. Meyer's father, Andrew Saks of Saks & Co., was the reason the Meyers were returning to New York. There are a couple of articles from The New York Times on Mrs. Meyer's ET summary page about this.
Can anyone share with me a picture of Leila Meyer and possibly a copy of something with her hand writing? I am trying to determine if the Marconigram sent from the Carpathia with the message "Leila safe and well cared for. Edgar missing." is in her handwriting.
Thanks for any help.
The messages would have been dictated to somebody like a purser's clerk, who filled in the form. I've seen others from the Carpathia with handwriting identical to that on the Meyer form.
