Katariina Jussila

Katariina Iikantytär Jussila was a passenger on *Titanic*.

## Early life

Katariina Iikantytär Jussila was a native of Paavola, Oulu, Finland. She was born in 1892. Her father was Ilkka Jussila and her mother was possibly Reeta Liisa Heikintytär Yli-Sipola as it looks like Ilkka was remarried to her after his former wife Kaisa Sofia Sakarintytär.

Katariina had at least 7 siblings, of which many were younger borthers and some stepsisters. One of them was Aina Mari. She was born in 1895. Katariina lived her whole young life in Paavola. Later, she would work as a maid.

She was with her sister Mari on her way to an uncle who had a Finnish placement agency in New York. They were going to do domestic service for someone and their earnings would help in creating a better life for her parents and siblings, who counted on the money for sustaining themselves.

## *Titanic*

She was unmarried and 20 years old when she and Maria set foot on the largest steamer in the world at that time. *Titanic* shortly left the Southampton docks after they had boarded to start her Maiden Voyage. The Jussila sisters traveled in Third Class and had a cabin in the aft part of the sship, which they shared with Anna Turja, Hedvig Turkula, Sofia Lathinen as well as Helga and Hildur Hirvonen.

In the night of April 14, *Titanic* had hit trouble as an iceberg wasn't avoided on the last second, leaving gashes in her hull on starboard side. The result was seawater entering the ship at rapid pace and the captain realised it when he, at April 15 12:05 A.M, gave the signal to evacuate the ship. The ship was doomed to sink and she foundered 2 hours and 40 minutes after the collision.

Katariina and her sister were not saved and they became victims of the disaster. There weren’t any traces of a body left.

## After her death

The parents received damages for both their daughters of £75 plus £10 from the charity, named the The Daily Telegraph Fund in England.

Mary Phyllis Elizabeth Corey

Mary Phyllis Elizabeth Corey was a Second Class passenger of the *Titanic*. She was one of the only 12 female Second Class passengers that lost their lives in the disaster. She was often referred to as 'Mamie'.

## Biography

Mary Phyllis Elizabeth Miller was born in 1882, her birth place being Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Mary was the eldest daughter of John Alexander Miller and Sarah Jarrett, both natives of Pennsylvania. Mary was first-born and later had eight younger siblings: John, Albert and Bertha who were twins, Howard, Percy, Elva, Lydia and Sarah.

The family lived in Elliot, Pittsburgh around 1900, while they were living in Pitssburgh itself 10 years later. Mary, known as Mamie, worked as a teacher at *Westlake School*. She married Percy Coleman, a native of Pennsylvania and son of Joseph Corey and Anna Waite, in Windsor, Essex, on August 26, 1911. Percy had previously married Minnie Bedford in 1896, with whom he had a son, Harold, born in 1895, but the marriage had ended in divorce.

Mary moved to Burma, India, where her husband worked as a superintendent in an oil company, becoming pregnant during her stay, which is why she decided to return to Pennsylvania, as she wanted to have her son there.

## *Titanic*

On 10 April 1912, Mary boarded the RMS *Titanic* in Southampton as a Second Class passenger along with Claire Karnes. Claire, a Pittsburgh resident, was married to Frank, who worked for Percy in Burma, where the two women met. Like Mary, Claire was also pregnant. Mary Corey was 30 years old at the time.

Mary probably spent her last day in the Second Class Library. In this regard, Lawrence Beesley wrote about her and Claire having a conversation there.

On the night of April 14 the ship had struck an iceberg and started sinking.

Both Mary and Claire perished in the sinking of the *Titanic* on the night of April 15. The reason why none of them left the ship is unknown. Shockingly, Claire's husband, Frank, had died in India during her absence.

## After her death

One of Mary's brothers, Percy, who had hoped his sister had survived, went unsuccessfully to several hospitals in New York and spoke to some of the shipwreck survivors in order to get some clue to her whereabouts. Several of them claimed to have spoken to Mary on the *Titanic*, but none had seen her aboard the RMS *Carpathia*, the ship that rescued the survivors of the disaster.

Percy Coleman later returned to the United States, marrying in 1914 in Los Angeles, California, Hazel Eugenia McDaniels, who was divorced. The marriage was short-lived and Percy married an English woman, Florence Agnes Snell, with whom he had two daughters, both born in Burma: Margaret and Patricia. The son of his first marriage, Harold, died in a plane crash in New York in 1919, Percy passed away in San Luis Obispo, California, on April 3, 1960.

Mary's name is included on the memorial of the grave of her sister Bertha Miller at Chartiers Cemetery, Carnegie, Pennsylvania. Inscribed on the bottom of the memorial is: "Mary lost at sea on the *Titanic* Apr. 15. 1912"
Leo Zimmermann

Leo Zimmermann was a farmer from the village of Todtmoos in Waldshut, in the Black Forest, in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. He was born there on February 20th, 1883. His father was Joseph Zimmermann, a sales agent and his mother was Ludwina Wasmer. Leo had 5 brothers and 4 sisters. The family led a difficult, but peaceful life in the countryside.

In 1899, being 16 years old, he played the trumpet as a member of the Musikverein on the Todtmoos-Weg.

Life became tougher when in 1900 their 150 years old house caught fire and was destroyed. In 1905 Leo lost his mother Ludwina.

Two of Zimmermann's brothers, Arnold and Edwin, both labourers, had left Germany for Québec, via Antwerp in 1911. Their intended final destination was Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in Canada and Leo, still unmarried at the time, dreamed of a better life in this new world, and decided to make the journey to join them the following year.

He boarded *Titanic* in Southampton as a Third Class passenger and provided his destination as the home of his brother Edwin in Saskatoon. Originally he was supposed to sail on *Olympic*, as documents have shown, but it is unknown why he was transferred to her sister ship. Leo was 29 years old at the time.

He shared a cabin with Josef Arnold, Anton Kink, Vincenz Kink, Albert Wirz and a Bohemian man, probably Wenzel Linhart. It is presumed to be #58 on F-Deck, a cabin for 6 people.

On April 14, *Titanic* had struck an iceberg 20 minutes before midnight, and the 5 men were awaken and tried to escape. Sadly, only Anton Kink made it off the sinking vessel safely, while Leo and the others perished in the disaster. Zimmerann's body wasn't recovered.

On 4 June 1912 the Grand Ducal District Office St. Blasien informed Leo's father Josef and brother Matthäus about Leo's death. Two months after that, the family filed a claim which included a refund of the cost of his *Titanic* ticket, as well as demanding 8050 Reichsmark for father Joseph Zimmermann, who Leo was taking care of.

On 8 April 1913 they received their answer. The claim was denied. 805 Reichsmark for Josef was the best they could do.

His brother Arnold was still living and working as a farmer in Saskatoon in 1916.

In September 2020, more than 100 years after *Titanic*'s foundering, the Swiss Titanic Society and the German *Titanic* historian Jens Ostrowski collaborated with the Todtmoos' local goverment to create a memorial plaque to remember Leo.
Charlotte Appleton

Mrs Charlotte Appleton was a First Class passenger travelling home from Britain, with her sisters, Malvina Helen Cornell and Caroline Lane Brown. They had been in Britain to attend the funeral of their sister, Lady Drummond. Charlotte Appleton, the daughter of Charles Lamson and Elizabeth Robert Marshall, was born in New York City, on 12 December 1858.

Charlotte married to book publisher Edward Dale Appleton in 1894; the couple lived in New York.

They boarded Titanic at Southampton, and were in cabin C-101. Colonel Archibald Gracie was a acquiantance of them. Her husband knew him, they were friends since they both attended the St. Paul's Academy in Concord, New Hampshire. They talked a lot with him about their fourth sister.

Charlotte and her sister, Malvina Helen Cornell, survived the sinking by boarding lifeboat 2 which left the ship very late, at 1:40 A.M.; her other sister Caroline Lane Brown, who had become separated from her sisters boarded and survived upon Collapsible D, which was the last lifeboat to be lowered by the davits. The ladies Mrs Douglas and Miss Elisabeth Allen were also in that boat and they later said that Mrs Appleton and Mrs Cornell both rowed and kept rowing and rowing.

Onboard their rescue ship, Carpathia, the sisters were surprised to find that their aunt and uncle, Mr and Mrs Charles Marshall, were among Carpathia’s own passengers.

Following the disaster, Mrs. Appleton returned to her home in New York where she lived out the rest of her life.

Charlotte Appleton died on Wednesday 25th June 1924, at Flushing Hospital, New York. She was buried at Woodlawn Cemetery, New York, on 27th June 1924
Edith Louise Rosenbaum

**Edith Louise (Rosenbaum) Russell** (June 12th, 1879 – April 4th, 1975) was an American fashion buyer, stylist and correspondent for *Women's Wear Daily*, best remembered for surviving the 1912 sinking of the RMS *Titanic*.

## Biography

### Early Life

Edith was born on 12 June 1879 in Cincinnati, Ohio, into the wealthy Jewish family, with her father being Harry Rosenbaum. Her fashion career began 1908, when she moved to Paris to become a saleswoman for the haute couture house of Chéruit in the Place Vendôme. She was also involved in the car accident in 1911 when her fiance Ludwig Loewe perished. The accident caused her a slight memory loss, but no significant injuries.

### Aboard the *Titanic*

She boarded the *Titanic* at Cherbourg, and occupied cabin A-11. During the sinking, she was noticed by J. Bruce Ismay and admonished for not joining the lifeboat yet. He directed her down the stairwell where one of the boats was being loaded. Better say *overloaded* since it was the lifeboat 11, a boat being lowered with 70, 5 more than its official capacity. She had a toy pig music box, which, when wound up, played "The Maxixe". She concealed herself behind her coat, being afraid to join the boat. However, a crew member, thinking that the toy was a living pet, tossed it in, with Edith leaping after it in the boat. Then, she played her music box to calm down the frightened children.

### Later Life and Death

Despite retiring in 1937, Edith still continued her traveling. She became a regular TV guest mostly on BBC-1 and BBC-2. Her story became widely known in the press at the time and was later included in the best-selling account of the disaster *A Night to Remember* by Walter Lord.

Edith Rosenbaum Russell died at the Mary Abbott Hospital in London on April 4th, 1975 at the age of 95.[37]

### Legacy

Most of Edith's belongings were dispersed piecemeal among relatives and friends, including Walter Lord who inherited her legendary pig. On Lord's death in 2002, the toy was bequeathed to the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, London, which also received the floral-printed boudoir slippers Edith had worn when she boarded Lifeboat 11.
Jessie Allis Mary Goodwin

Jessie Allis Mary Goodwin (March 16, 1900 – April 15, 1912) was a Third Class passenger traveling on the Titanic with her family, which was entirely lost in the sinking. She was born on March 16, 1900 in Edmonton to Frederick Goodwin and Augusta Tyler Goodwin. Father Frederick was a printer and composer. He had married Augusta in 1894. Jessie was known to be a very happy and bright young girl. In 1901 they lived on Exeter Road, Edmonton, Middlesex and on the 1911 census it shows them living in Watson Court, Watson's Yard, High Street in Melksham, Wiltshire.

In 1912 the family seems to have returned to live, at least temporarily in London, at 10 Vernon Street, Fulham. Several of his father's siblings had immigrated to the United States and settled in Niagra, New York. Her uncle Thomas Goodwin notified the family of a position for his father at the large Niagra Power Station and plans were made for the family to settle there. Several of his aunts and uncles borrowed travel funds. The family had originally planned to cross on another steamer, but the coal strike changed their plans and they were transferred to the Titanic. So they boarded the Titanic at Southampton on 10 April 1912 in Third Class,(ticket number 2144 costing £46.18s). She and her entire family perished in the sinking, being 12 years old, she had five siblings: Lillian Augusta (b. 1896), Charles Edward (b. 1897), William Frederick (b. 1898), Harold Victor (b. 1901), and Sidney Leslie (b. 1910).
B-58

**Cabin B-58** was alocated on the port side on B Deck. next to the famous Parlor Suites. The Cave List stated it was occupied by Quigg Edmond Baxter. However, the cave list was incorrect, he had the next-door cabin, B-60. His wife Helene Baxter occupied B-58, together with Mary Helene Douglas. She paid £244,10.5 for it. It was was one of the 120 most luxurious cabins on Titanic.

### Decorations:

B-58 was decorated in the style Empire, therefore it had a plain light green floor and two beds that were turquoise. It had a sofa and a sink, even a vanity table. There was a chandelier in the center and a table and chair. The walls were white paneling with golden panels in between. B-58 had it's own bathroom, water closet, and wardrobe. (Technically shared with B-60) It also had blue, yellow, and magenta stained glass windows.

### Popular Culture

The only popular culture representation was Curiosity: What Sank Titanic? It was seen once, when Helene was upset due to the engines having stopped. Sadly it looked too plain and inaccurate.
Catherine Bourke

Catherine Bourke, born McHugh (November 1, 1879 – April 15, 1912), was a Third Class passenger on the RMS *Titanic*, who perished in the sinking of the ocean liner.

## Biography

Born in Tawnagh, Adergoole (County Mayo, Ireland), Catherine was the daughter of Patrick McHugh, a farmer, and Mary Madden, who married on May 22, 1865 in Ballina. Catherine had six siblings: Margaret (born May 4, 1866), Anthony (born August 27, 1868), Mary (born September 10, 1870), Cecily (born March 8, 1877), Ellen (born November 3, 1881) and Thomas (born November 17, 1883).

Catherine's parents died when she was sixteen. His mother died after suffering for six months in delicate health, his death occurring on January 19, 1886, while his father died of cancer on September 25 of the same year. Catherine immigrated to the United States over the next five years, settling in Chicago, Illinois. She returned to Ireland with her friend Catherine McGowan in October 1910, marrying farmer and childhood acquaintance John Bourke on March 5, 1911 at Lahardane Parish Church. They both lived together with Mary, John's sister, at 11 Carrowskeheen.

Catherine McGowan returned to her hometown of Mayo in late 1911, planning to return to Chicago in the spring of the following year with her niece Annie. This may have influenced John's decision to emigrate to Chicago, making plans along with his wife and sister to settle there. One of Catherine's sisters, Ellen, lived in Chicago, specifically at 66 Ruby Street.

She boarded Titanic in Queenstown on Thursday 11th April 1912.

When the ship had hit the iceberg on April 14th, 11:40 P.M, they must have not felt it and were still asleep when a steward knocked their door to wake them up. Catherine, John and Mary did make it to the Boat Deck and Catherine and her could've escaped in a lifeboat, but she didn't like the women-children first rule, and couldn't be convinced to leave her husband. Mary wouldn't leave her brother and her sister-in-law either so she stayed with them as well.
Alice Phoebe Harknett

Miss Alice Phoebe Harknett was born on October 15 1890 in Sewarstone Green, Essex, England. Her father was Edmund Harknett. He was a gun maker. Her mother was Jane Mercer. They had 4 children, of which Alice was the youngest. Her siblings were Ellen Florence, Joseph Edmund and Rosa May.

In 1911, Alice was a domestic kitchen servant in Hyde Park Gardens of West London. Alice had become good friends with Frances Mary Ford who then emmigrated to the US. Frances told Alice about the good life at the other side of the ocean, working as a domestic servant. Alice was convinced to travel with the Ford family who would also join Mary in the States. She went along with them, onto the *Titanic* in Southampton. Alice traveled Third Class. She was 21 years old at the time.

The ship had collided with an iceberg 20 minutes before midnight on April 14. The damage was enough to cause her to founder. On April 15, 2:20 A.M. *Titanic* slipped beneath the waves. Alice couldn't save herself and perished with the whole party and none of their bodies were recovered.
Amy Zillah Elsie Stanley

Amy Zillah Elsie Stanley was the lone survivor of the English contingent in Third Class headed for Connecticut. Amy’s destination was New Haven. Her friend Grace French lived there on Prospect Street. She was to be a nanny. In fact, had it not been for a coal strike, Amy would have not been on the Titanic. She survived on Collapsible lifeboat C and was picked up by the Carpathia. She later lived at 189 Center St. in West Haven

Amy Zillah Elsie Stanley was born on 4 January 1888. She was baptised at the church in Barford St. Michael, Oxfordshire on March 16 1888. Barford St. Michael (or Great Barford is a village about 2 miles W.N.W. of Deddington situatd on the river Swere. As she grew up Amy probably helped in the family grocery on Green Road (they sold butter, bacon and cheese). Eventually however, she became a dressmaker working in the nearby city of Oxford. Later she left home to go into domestic service in Wallingford, Oxfordshire.

When Amy was in her early twenties in 1912, her doctor told her she needed to leave her home in Great Britain to a warmer climate, so she booked a Second Class passage on a ship headed for America.  As an unmarried woman traveling alone, Amy was an oddity on the Titanic but she was excited about starting her new life. Amy's cabin mates were almost certainly Elizabeth Dowdell (30) and Virginia Ethel Emanuel (5).

As the Titanic sank into the cold, Atlantic waters, Amy found herself standing on the deck as the lifeboat in front of her was filled to capacity. However, a young man who had a seat saw her there, and without any pressure from other passengers, he leaped out and offered his spot to her.

Amy was given $200 by the American Red Cross (Entry no.431) and she travelled on to New Haven to start her new life.

Amy married Eugene Sheldon Tanner Sr. on November 1, 1918 in Brooklyn, NY. Through connections with the family she worked for in New Haven Amy managed to get Eugene an early honorable discharge from the Navy so they could be married.

On July 22, 1921 (in North Attleboro, MA) Amy gave birth to Alfred Stanley Tanner Sr. (died 30 September 1993 in Warwick, R.I). A second son, Eugene Sheldon Tanner Jr. was born in Providence, RI on August 8, 1926.

Amy's father died on August 4, 1921 aged 73. Her mother died on December 27, 1937 aged 77. The couple are buried in the graveyard of St Peter's Church, Wolvercote, Oxford.

Amy Tanner (née Stanley) died on April 21, 1955 in Providence, RI and was buried at Oakland Cemetery, Cranston, R.I. on 25 April 1955.
Elizabeth Johnston

Elizabeth Johnston was born as Elizabeth Watson on January the 1st, 1876 on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. She was the daughter of William Watson, a shepherd, and her mother was Margaret "Peggy" Ross. She was often referred to as 'Eliza.' She would have 12 siblings eventually.

By 1901, Elizabeth was living in Govan, Glasgow, and working as a domestic table maid. She married Andrew Emslie Johnston, a plumber from Aberdeen, in Glasgow on December 24, 1902 and the couple moved to Croydon, Surrey, England. They had two children, William Andrew and Catherine Nellie. In Sussex lived Eliza's older sister, Margaret Ann Ford. Margaret had a daughter, Frances, who had emigrated prior to the United States, and worked as a domestic servant. Frances' stories made life in America seem very attractive for her mother and Elizabeth was interested too.

Both families decided life would better and it seemed a good idea to leave for America. Alice Harknett, a friend of the Watsons, tagged along.

The family made plans to emmigrate to the US in October 1911 on board the *Philadelphia* but with difficulties caused by the coal strike they decided to wait for Elizabeth's sister, Margaret and her family, and rearranged their journey on the *Titanic*. They left the Southampton docks aboard the ship to set sail for what seemed a bright future to them. Their voyage was in Third Class like most emigrants. Elizabeth was 36 at the time of the voyage.

Margaret and Elizabeth planned to meet their brother Thomas in New London, Connecticut prior to reuniting with Frances.

Sadly however, the *Titanic* had an encounter with ice before midnight on April 14, and over the course of 2 hours and 40 minutes, she sank. During the sinking, the entire party was lost and none of their bodies were ever recovered.

*ALLAN - April 15th, 1912, on the S.S. Titanic, Robert Spencer, the dearly beloved husband of Georgina Emily Allen, of Durlston, Keilworth Road, Southampton. Deeply mourned by his sorrowing wife and children. God be with you till we meet again.*

He is remembered on the family's headstone in Toxteth Park Cemetery, Liverpool, England in section CE4, plot 535.

Robert's son Robert followed in his father's footsteps and went to work at sea. Tragedy struck for a second time when, on November 23rd, 1923, he died at sea in what could have been the S.S. Otterburn Explosion.
Eugene Patrick Daly

Eugene Patrick Daly, 29, from Athlone, County Westmeath, Ireland, was a Third Class Passenger travelling to New York City. He boarded the Titanic at Queenstown (ticket number 382651, £7, 15s). He is best known for two things: First off, his playing of the bagpipes all throughout Third Class, and the second is his testimony of seeing an officer shoot two passengers and then himself.

Eugene Daly was born on 23 January 1883 in Lisclough, Westmeath, Ireland. He was the son of James Patrick Daly and Catherine Farrelly.

Eugene entertained himself and the other Third Class entourage with his bagpipes whenever he wanted, and his music could be heard by the other classes as well.

The iceberg collision woke him up, it, in his own words, 'nearly threw him out of his bed'. He didn't waste no time to get up on the Boat Deck.

When it was very late, probably half an hour before Titanic's final moments, he saw two men in an act of desperation throw themselves into a lifeboat and an officer shoot them with a revolver. He then heard another shot, and saw the officer lying motionless on the deck. He thought that he had seen enough and he dived overboard. He was later picked up by Collapsible B.

Upon landing in New York and physically recovering from his ordeal, he competed in the Gaelic Feis bagpipe competition in Celtic Park, although he didn't win the grand prize. Daly later claimed $50 compensation from the White Star Line for the loss of his beloved instrument.

He went on to marry a woman named Lillian, with whom he had one child, Marian Joyce, who was born during one of his visits back to Ireland. Daly utlimately settled in the US in the 1960's and was living in the Bronx at the time of his death, on October 30, 1965. He reached the age of 82.

Henry Allen

## Biography

Mr. Henry Allen was born in the first quarter of 1882 in Southampton, Hampshire, England. He was the son of coal porter William Allen (1847 - ?) and his wife Clara Biles (1855 - ?). He had three older siblings; William Henry (1875 - ?), Annie (1877 - ?) and Edwin (1879 - ?). Henry was baptised on February 10th, 1882, in St. James's Church in Southampton.

The family first appear a few months before Henry's birth living at 23 King Street in Southampton. On the 1891 census, they are now seen residing at 3 St. George's Court, still in Southampton. He started to work at sea and, in 1900, got married to Cecilia Reid (1879 - 1948), a native of Gosport. Together, they had seven children; Emily (1900 - ?), Annie Cecilia (1901 - 1988), William Henry (1903 - ?), Charles Edward (1906 - 1984), Alfred James (1909 - 1989), Clara Elizabeth (1910 - 2003) and Eliza (August 13th, 1912 - 1988). As seen on the 1901 census, the small family lives at 6 Mount Street in Southampton. But, on the 1911 census, they are now seen living at 3 French Street, without Henry. Instead, Henry is listed as an inmate at the HM Prison on Romsey Road, in Winchester, Hampshire, England. His crime remains unknown.

When Henry signed on the R.M.S. Titanic on April 6th, 1912, he gave his address as 3 French Street, Southampton and his previous ship as the R.M.S. Oceanic. On board the Titanic, he would work as a fireman and receive a monthly pay of £6. Also serving on board was his brother-in-law Robert Thomas Reid and James Mason, his lodger. Henry perished in the sinking and his body was recovered. He was the 145th body recovered by the C.S. Mackay-Bennett. He was brought back to Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada and buried at Fairview Lawn Cemetery on May 8th, 1912.

His family would benefit from the Titanic Relief Fund as Class G dependents. His wife got re-married in 1914 to William F. Dollery (1871-1937), a former merchant seaman, and would have further children. Henry is remembered on the family headstone in the Old Common Cemetery Southampton, located in section D 184, plot 110.

James Clinch Smith

James Clinch Smith was born in 1856 on Thursday 3rd April, in Smithtown, Long Island, New York. The town was named after his ancestor Richard 'Bullrider' Smith who founded the place. James' father was a judge, named John Lawrence Smith and his wife, Sarah Nicoll Clinch Smith. They had eleven children. Sarah Nicoll Clinch had a niece who was married to the owner of New York's first department store. Her name was Cornelia Stewart and her husband was A.T. Stewart.

## Early life

James followed in his father's footsteps and studied law, eventually he graduated from Colombia Law School. In 1878, he began practicing law in New York City. He was very popular in social circles. He was an expert horseman and yachtsman. He was fond of horseracing and played polo.

James' youngest sister Bessie Springs Smith married to Stanford White who was an architect, who would become famous. The ceremony was in 1884. In 1885 he also found a spouse, Bertha Ludington Barnes from Chicago, an accomplished musician and composer.

In 1886 his mother's sister died. It was Cornelia Stewart, the widow who lost her husband 10 years prior. It seems the family Smith fought a battle over the fruits of her will, most notably the estate of this generous lady. Everyone wanted their share of it. Settlement didn't come until 1890, after it had been taken to court.

By 1904 the couple moved to Paris so Bertha could persue her musical career. Smith would visit the USA once a year during the following years.

By 1911 his marriage was in trouble. He never liked his wife's profession.In January 1912, Berta approached him and asking him over to France. Apparently, they reconciled. Bertha agreed to give up her career and move back to Smithtown. At the last minute, Bertha's travel plans changed and James decided to go on ahead, back to the US to prepare his homestead for the arrival of his famous wife.

## *Titanic*

He boarded the RMS *Titanic* at Cherbourg in France. He took his stay in cabin A-7. James 56 years old at the time.

Colonel Archibald Gracie knew him and wrote about James Smith in his book he quickly wrote after the disaster.

On the night of April 14, *Titanic* had struck an iceberg and the ship started sinking immediatly. When it was clear that evacuation was needed, Gracie and James went over to port side to help load women and children on boats.

It's highly possible that James Smith was swallowed by a wave that swept over *Titanic*'s bridge and Boat Deck, around 2:07 A.M. Only Gracie made it on the Collapsible B which aided him in surviving the ordeal. Smith's body was lost to the sea.

He commended Smith later on his bravory and selflessness, when creating his memoires.

It was only a year later that Bertha Burns also passed away. She was in Switzerland when she was struck by tuburcolosis on 19 August 1913. However it was said that her broken heart is what helped cause her death.

On the night of April 14, Titanic had grazed an iceberg and a small Bertha thought it be best if they would go check things out. They went back to their cabin, having been assured by a steward nothing of interest had happened. Her husband had witnessed floating bagage in the holds but he laughed it off.

She wasn't as confident as her husband and felt something was off. She couldn't stay in her cabin and waited in the hallway to see if there were any developments. She had run into a passenger who had informed her and then she went back to Norman to tell him that there had been and order for them to evacuate and get lifebelts. Norman checked it with a steward and got confirmation. They went up, and there seemed no panic anywhere, on a higher Deck some passengers where gathered but it was nothing out of the ordinary.

They arrived of the Boat Deck, her husband making an amused chat with a deck steward and he gave them towels. They checked the port side, but there was no activity. They walked to the other side via the First Class Lounge. She wanted to board a lifeboat and did so but suggested to Norman that he should join her, which made him puzzle but did it anyway. They were saved from the disaster in lifeboat 5.

On 24 November 1922, she lost her mother. She and her husband had paid her many visits during their busy life filled with voyages.

She passed away in 1959. Norman remarried years later.
