Does anyone have a screenshot of/free link to Rhoda and Company listed on the 1911 England and Wales census? I looked for quite a while but haven't been able to find the Abbotts on the 1911 census, plus now my subscription to the site I was using ran out lol. thanks :DD

Hi y'all, Looking for an online (and free) copy of the 1911 Electrician issue covering the Olympic's electrical systems. Issue one is July 28th, 1911, and Part II is August 4th, 1911. I've looked through the Internet archive, which holds a large collection of Engineering, The Engineer, and...

Hi! Recently I heard that Olympic possibly had Green and Cream tiles in her wheelhouse, instead of Red and Cream like Britannic and Titanic had. Is this true? I photos of Olympic , at least that I've seen, I've never seen it appear to be green. Are there any photos or documents of this? Thanks!

Does anyone think he should? I do!! It'd be easier for projects, and to study Olympic's plans. I've never seen them, the whole thing at least, I've noted the differences, such as the Marconi Room and Officer's Quarters being different. He has Titanic's, so why not? He said he hasn't seen any...

I have some questions about that voyage at Christmas 1911. I know for sure that Olympic was at sea at Christmas 1911, tho there are several christmass menues dated by December 25th 1911. But I don't know if Olympic was going TO New York or FROM New York and also had she come to Cherburg and...

For the past year, I have been trying to identify this ship that is seen docked nearby the Arrol Gantry between May 29th and May 31st 1911, just days before Titanic’s launch. She can been seen in several photos (ranging from a postcard to a John Kempster Photo) but unfortunately is aways seen...

Found this remarkable video on youtube which recaptures life in New York city in 1911 with incredible sound effects. Almost feels like I could step inside the film and see the Olympic approaching on her maiden voyage. .

On November 18th 1911 while the Olympic was being repaired in Belfast a gunfight began inside the ship, resulting in one man's arrest and another seriously injured. The incident and trial that followed were covered in local papers. Extracts from Belfast Newsletter Exciting Incident on the...

Preceded by The Houndsditch Murders where a Latvian gang of thieves murdered 3 Policemen in a botched Jewelry robbery. The 3 robbers escaped and barricaded themselves in a house and, by superior firepower and marksmanship, kept the London Police and a British Army Detachment at bay for...

I recently purchased a White Star Line Silver Chocolate Pot that I was able to date to 1911 from the Elkington date mark and the White Star line design number Rd 579941. I was paging through the book Titanic Legacy of the World's Greatest Ocean Liner by Susan Wels and on page 57 saw a picture of...

I very much enjoyed participating in the recent discussion on the presentation of debutantes at the English Court. I therefore think it is high time I started a new thread devoted to information and anecdotes about the two great 'State' occasions of the Edwardian Era - the Coronations of Edward...

Hi all, Does anyone know the sailing date for the Baltic, arriving in New York July 23rd 1911? TIA Paul

I am looking at a photo of the dinner menu for May 31st, 1911, celebrating the launch of Titanic. It is in French, and there are several items I cannot translate. Does anyone happen to know what "pommes fridal" means? I know the "pommes" part means apple, but I'm stuck on the "fridal." Thanks.

As a Titanic book collector, I speak from experience that some collectors collect multiple copies of the rare titles, with hopes of using the extra copies as trading stock. I have 2 copies of the **ultra** rare 1912 'An Unsinkable Titanic by J Bernard Walker, 1912, in vg shape. (Im keeping one...
