I realize this thread is probably long-dead, seeing that it was last added two four years ago, but I thought I'd throw this in if anyone was curious: there is a photo of Laura as a young woman, probably in her twenties, on a website called "Titanic Passengers." Just go to Google, type in Laura Cribb - Titanic and you'll eventually find it. There are several pictures of Karen in her twenties in the book 31 Norwegian Destinies (the author's name escapes me at the moment.) Unfortunately, I have not been able to find any pictures of these two as teens. |

Have you seen Laura Mae (Mary) Cribb's 1916 passport photo? I put Mary in there because she gives her name as Laura Mary on the application? I'm pretty certain it's her application, as date of birth, location, and her father's information are a match.
I can post the photo if you haven't seen it, just have to size it first.

If this passport photo is the one at
http://www.titanic-passengers.com/cribbs.htm, then yes, I've seen it. If not, please hurry to post it! I just love seeing new pictures of children on the Titanic  |

On Laura Cribb's ET biography, there is a picture of a poem she wrote in her diary on the Titanic; does anyone know what this poem says? |

I have recently begun to find interest in this passenger, especially her account given under the 'Articles' section of her ET Bio. I found it quite tragic and compelling, and wondered if there's any truth in the story she told about her father knowing about or having access to some staircase that was known only by the crew. Anyways, I thought it was an interesting story, and being interested in the teens and young adults on the Titanic, I was wondering, does anyone known anything more about her time on the ship, any accounts she might have given, etc? And is it known if the famous poem and picture of the Titanic from her diary were written/drawn during her time on the ship, and what the poem says?
Much thanks,
Holly Alzbeta |
