independent.ie	THE TITANIC LOVE STORY THAT CAUSED A RIFT IN MY FAMILY Tom and Hannah had tickets for another vessel but were transferred to the Titanic. It must have seemed like a stroke of luck because steerage on the Titanic was equivalent to second class elsewhere. They shared their cabin with another couple.

Everyone knows what happened next. Three days after leaving Cobh, on the night of April 14, 1912, the Titanic collided with an iceberg. It was a catastrophe that could have been averted if ice warnings from other ships had been heeded. Or perhaps if the lookouts had been given binoculars, instead of having them locked away on the bridge. The Titanic is a story peppered with ifs and buts, as tragedies tend to be....	2nd June 2011
