    My great aunt and her brother were booked on the Titanic. He got sick so they had to book a later ship. He must not have completely recovered because he died on the voyage over, leaving my poor little great aunt all by herself on the rest of the trip, grieving the loss of her little brother alone, and then entering the chaos of Ellis Island. She never talked about it. She was quite a wonderful woman. Died in the 1970s and I still miss her. God bless you, Bebe.

      @@mf_explosive304 Sadly, you will hit a brick wall for information. I reported on it as I was doing my research and is in my Mount Carmel book which is out of publication. I spent 12 years reading 104 years of local newspapers to get all my true stories in the book. I then spent another 5 years photographing every headstone in all 11 cemeteries around Mount Carmel and posted them them on Findagrave. I am also a member of the conservatives of the Titanic and was able to obtain a small piece of coal brought up from the bottom of the ocean.
      Now here’s the problems you’ll run into. The cemetery they were interred in is naturally public but the church records concerning both men are lost to time. All the church can tell you is they were buried in a certain section, like #8 say, but the exact location in that large section is still unknown. Since I photographed every conceivable place they could be, they’re still lost to time.
      I can tell you this, the victim was coming here to live with an uncle in Kulpmont Pennsylvania. He was identified by personal affects in his clothing. The other man who survived was probably ashamed he ended up in a lifeboat, like in the movie, where men were supposed to die. So he changed his name, heard about coal mining jobs in our area and headed here. Unfortunately, mining is a very dangerous occupation down in the mines and on the surface where he was killed. If you wish other information, contact me.

The records have been lost and only the stories about them are the only information available. The uncle of the victim never placed a marker on his grave and he’s been dead maybe 75 years with no known relatives. The sister of the survivor disputed his claim of being her brother and had changed his name because he didn’t want to be found for some unknown reason. If he was her brother, his name was on the roster of passengers but his body was never found after the sinking. Before any kind of White Star investigation could be made, he ended up coming to our community and was killed within days of being here, so the matter was dropped.

It was once the business of Snow and Sons, the funeral home responsible for taking care of the Titanic victims as well as the victims of the Halifax explosion 5 years later. It’s a haunted place. I can attest to that myself but unfortunately, I think they changed it so much that the once incredible ambiance of the place is altered. It’s not as much of a hotspot anymore and the staff will gladly talk to you about it, but you have to ask …they don’t volunteer these stories.

    Wow this was just fascinating. It never crossed my mind to wonder where they were buried. As a little kid I was fascinated by the pictures in a book about how it was supposed to have looked sinking. I was 15 when Ballard discovered it. I was overwhelmed by the finding. All those ppl, the rich who died, the poor who never got a chance. Such an absolute catastrophe that more weren't saved. There never would've been enough for all, but so many died that didn't have too

    Great video. My great grandfather Albert Horswill survived the sinking of the Titanic. He was on the infamous cutter lifeboat one. He and six other crewmen, Cosmo and Lucy Duff Gordon, their maid, and two other first class passengers. The press accused the Duff Gordons of bribing the crewmen to avoid picking up passengers in the sea. This was not true, it was merely a kind gesture by Cosmo and Lucy Duff Gordon to compensate the men for lost wages. The lifeboat was named the “money boat” by the press. My great grandfather testified at the British inquiry to the disaster along with the Duff Gordons.

These were real people, some moving lock stock, and barrel to America to take up jobs and it was a huge expensive risk, even for the 3rd class. To wrench your children away from all they have known to find out there isn't a boat for them...doesn't bear thinking about. XXXX I lived 3 miles from where the Captains home was.

    White Star were incredibly callous with regard to the families of lost Titanic crew. So many of them were from Southampton, including its captain and there was little help or mercy shown to the bereaved. Here in Southampton we live with the ghosts of many of them. Interestingly too there is no one monument to the disaster. Those that there are were raised through the donations of private benefactors and the grandest of these is the Engineers’ monument in East Park Southampton.
