Mr Albert M. Haines, 31, was born in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, on 5 May 1880.
When he signed-on to the Titanic, on 6 April 1912, he gave his address as 62 Grove St., (Southampton). His last ship was the Olympic. As Boatswain's mate he received monthly wages of £5 10s.
After the collision Haines and Lamp Trimmer Samuel Hemming heard air escaping from the forepeak tank. They reported it to Chief Officer Henry Wilde who was busy making an inspection. Hemming told Wilde that water was filling the forepeak tank but that the storeroom was still dry. Wilde left to report back to Captain Smith on the bridge.
Albert Haines was rescued in lifeboat 9.
