Hello, would anyone know the biscuit recipe (or similar) for the Titanic second class dinner? My daughter needs it for a science project (believe it or not). Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. |

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Whitman in January of 1991. I know he remembers the lost stranded women and man on a cold pouring down rainy night. Which he helped put an alternator on a jeep pickup and handed us $40.00 to make the trip back to Michigan. I drove a blue thunderbird. I always considered him my guardian angel, cause if he hadnt offered me the money, I would have never made it home. That 150 mile trip took us 18 hours to drive, and I just want to thank him from the bottom of my heart for all he did that night for us.
Sincerly....

Many articles i have read regarding Margaret Tobin Brown,indicate she was traveling with her daughter, Catherine Ellen (Helen) Brown...yet i do not find her name on any passenger list or survivor lists. Does any one know if she was in fact on the ship and how she managed to survive. Was she in the same lifeboat as her mother? Would appreciate any information on this subject. thanks |

Hello Raleigh,
Welcome to Encyclopedia Titanica.
Helen was not onboard. From Margaret's biography on this web-site: "At the last minute Helen decided to stay behind in London." http://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/biography/43/ |

Dear,
I am Rekic Esad from Bosanska Krupa (Bosnia and Herzegovina).
I am writting this for the first time, in hope that you will answer.
Because i already had few intervievs with journalists about my Grandfather Ejdo Rekic ( he died in Titanic) I decided to contact you.
you can see intervievs at web link :http://www.nezavisne.com/dnevne/mozaik/moz06072006-01.php
Ejdo Rekic is my Grand grandfather. He died at his second jurney to America.
First time he was there at 1906.When he went second time, with Titanic, he never came back. he vas living at Village called Ostruznica.
With this e-mail I am sending you pictures form cemetary where lyes his son, and his wife Hance.
His son has got name as Ejdo so he was also called Ejdo Rekic.
If you are interested to know more about Ejdo, his documentations, and rest, you can contact me on this e mail.
I would also be happy to know more about his yourney, and rest if you have that informations.
To not be comfused, in your lists, and notes Ejdo's name has written wrong. You wrote Tido Rekic or Tido Kekic. He's real name is Ejdo Rekic just to know.
All best. |

Could anyone tell me how I can find a list of all the employees who worked on the building of the Titanic at Harland & Wolff in Belfast please. I have reason to believe that my great grandfather may have worked on the construction of the ship. Thank you. Christina. |

Since Harland & Wolff never kept such a list in the first place, that would present quite a problem. Employees were seldom ever assigned to a specific ship to the exclusion of all others. They were sent where needed as needed on a day to day basis.

Christina. Michael is correct. H & W receives queries about workers from 1912 and has stated that no lists of workers exist.
It's just possible that you may find something in old newspapers in Belfast, or in private letters. You'd need to be on the spot.

Hallo, Trina. After the Titanic Christopher Mills did continue working at sea as a butcher into the 1920s, by which time he would have reached retirement age. He served mainly on Cunard liners sailing between Southampton and New York. |

Hello,I am Peter S.lewis of Bidford-on-Avon. I have been looking through this site and noticed that one contributor is Nicholas Jardine-Patterson, and I wondered if this gentleman is the same person who has in the past communicated with me in relation to the Stratford & Midland Junction Railway? I would be pleased to hear from him again.
Thank you. Peter S.Lewis |

Hello, Lester-
(Quote):
>>Helen was not onboard. From Margaret's biography on this web-site: "At the last minute Helen decided to stay behind in London."<<
Is there any information on the whereabouts of Margaret's son Lawrence Palmer Brown or Mr.J.J. at that time ?
I assume they were both elsewhere ?

Same goes for information on Mrs. J.J. Brown from the movies. LOL.

Hello,
I can prove that my grandfather was on the Titanic and that his name Rekić Ejdo. My Dad was named after him.
He was buried in Bosanska Krupa Ostružnica.
I had a radio interview with some houses and I got a book of 100 years of Bosniac in America that says about my great-grandfather.
For those who do not believe here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IcESd-43zM |

Ermin, why would you think we wouldn't believe you, especially since you provide documentation?

Unfortunately, youtube, in and of itself, doesn't prove much of anything. Now, if the name appeared on the crew sign in lists for the voyage, that would be compelling. If the man worked under an alias (It was known to happen) and there was documentary evidence to the effect, that would be useful as well.
