Miss Julia Smyth, 20, of Kilcoghy, Co Cavan, boarded the Titanic at Queenstown as a third class passenger (ticket number 335432, £7 14s 8d). Her destination was New York City.
Julia Smyth was rescued, probably in lifeboat 13.
Miss Smyth made New York City her home following the Titanic disaster. She married Thomas White and lived in New York.
She was one of the many survivors who attended the 1958 New York premiere of the film A Night to Remember. At this reunion, Mrs White was reunited with fellow Irish survivors Margaret Devaney O'Neill and Katherine Gilnagh Manning.
Julia White (née Smyth) died 27 April 1977. Like Eugene Daly, there is no gravestone for Mrs White who was buried at the same cemetery as him (St. Raymond's Cemetery, Bronx, New York)
