Who are the surviving passengers on this photo

[Hildo Thiel]

Hi everyone,

Who knows who the people are on the photo on page 172 of "The Titanic Disaster - As reported in the British National Press April - July 1912.

They are third class passengers of Titanic. Could the boy standing on the front is Johan Cervin Svensson or is he a crew member of the Carpathia?

Regards,

Hildo

Hildo, I'm not a lifeboat person and rely totally on what others have determined so can't speak to that issue. However, the other information on the passengers appears to be correct other than the fact that Dr. Dodge was born Henry Washington Dodge instead of Washington Henry Dodge. Several of the women had been married to other husbands prior to Titanic.

 

[Hildo Thiel]

Dear Phillip,

Thanks for the information. So I can put the information with the exception of the boats as correct information.

The women who had been married to other husbands prior to Titanic, where they: Mrs. Dodge, Mrs. Frauenthal and Mrs. Gibson?

Regards,

Hildo

 

[Phillip Gowan]

Right--Martha Stone was also married previously.

Hi Phillip,

Thanks, Was Mrs. Stone married to a Harrington or is that her maiden name?

Regards,

Hildo

 

[Phillip Gowan]

Hildo,
Mrs. Stone was first married to John Harrington--her maiden name was Stevens.

And are you referring to a specific photo when you mention Washington Dodge? If so, which one? I would be very interested in this as he was in #13.

Best regards,

Unless I am mistaken, Dr Dodge was first married to a Fontaine- a sugar baroness- they had a child, Henry(Harry) who was not on the ship. His second marriage was Ruth's first- they had one child, my grandfather, Washington Dodge

 

[Phillip Gowan]

Hi Jennifer--I believe that Washington Dodge, Sr., (born Henry Washington Dodge according to his Last Will and Testament), was first married to a Miss Lampson and had Harry. Ruth Vidaver had first been married to a Fontaine and had a daughter Vida, later Mrs. Payne. Your grandfather then was the only child of their marriage together.

I hope you can join us for dinner in March--have some interesting items I've accumulated that you might enjoy seeing and I'm sure you have some that would keep me "riveted." Where are you in N.C.?

My best,
Phillip

The 1900 California census - San Francisco County lists Washington H. Dodge with three children:
Royal L.(son) born in Oct 1885 in California, Gladys Dodge (daughter) born in July 1886 in California and Henry W. (son) born Nov 1891 in California. The mother is Alice L. born in 1868 in California. Washington H. is listed as being born in June 1859 in California.

 

[Phillip Gowan]

Washington Dodge married Mrs. Alice Lampson Shepherd in February of 1891--the children Royal L. and Gladys were not Dodge children (they were apparently Alice's by Mr. Shepherd)--although they were enumerated that way on the census. Henry W. was the only child born to Washington by Alice.
