Mrs Ethel Beane (née Clarke)

Mrs Edward Beane (Ethel Clarke), 21, was born 15 November 1892 in Norwich, England, the daughter of George Clarke and his wife.

(Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, April 15, 1931 / Phillip Gowan, USA)

She boarded the Titanic as a second class passenger together with her new husband Edward. He had come to Norwich in March 1912 to marry her. This happened shortly before the Titanic departed and the couple spent some days of their honeymoon in Norwich before travelling to Southampton to board the vessel. They had ticket number 2908 and paid £26.

Mrs Beane survived the sinking together with her husband in lifeboat 13.

Mrs Beane died in Rochester, New York on 17 September 1983.
