Which American newspaper published the first pictures of Titanic survivors taken aboard the Carpathia? Who was given credit for the pictures in byline?
Greetings all: The following is from the affadavit of first class passenger Mahala Douglas: It references a reporter Mr. Beattie, of the London Times approaching her before the Carpathia actually docked.
"Maj. Peuchen came to me just before landing in New York with Mr. Beattie, of the London...
the ship was traveling at 17 knots (its maximum speed was 14) ..Crew members in the engine room that night noticed that the steam pressure gauges were off the dial, prompting Chief Engineer Johnson to place his hat over the gauge. "Carry on, boys. Captain's orders."
What did they risk? I think...
hi mates, the survivor Eleanor Johnson in an interview tells a curious fact: her mother was taken to the bottom of the Carpathia to warm up... you talk about a place with heated tubes, does anyone know if this happened to other passengers? where could these places be?
Hi,
Long time lurker, first time poster. I was curious if anyone knew anything specific about Fred Fleet’s time on the Carpathia and his time leading up to the Senate Inquiry in Washington. It would really help me with a project I'm working on.
Or if anyone knows of any specific sources or...
Okay, I know it has been long discussed and said that Titanic and Britannic cannot be raised from the ocean floor but what about the ship that saved the Titanic survivors, the Carpathia? On July 17th, 1918, Carpathia was struck by three torpedoes from a German U-boat and sank. The wreck...
Not sure if no one's mentioned it or, more likely, I just couldn't find it. I'm wondering how exactly the Carpathia rescued the Titanic survivors. Not a timeline, but specifically, how did they bring them aboard? Did they open a side door, or come all the way up onto the deck? Did they lower a...
I just had the thought that if Carpathia didn't come what would've happened. so here is a post for it. if the every ships captain thought Titanic's distress signals was a joke, would everyone that was on titanic have died? or would the people who work at the telegraph offices wonder why titanic...
The "unsinkable" Titanic set sail on its ill-fated voyage on April 10, 1912, with around 2,200 people aboard.
A British passenger liner, the Titanic was operated by White Star Line and was traveling from Southampton, England, to New York City.
At 11:40 p.m. on April 14, an iceberg was spotted...
Besides Dr. Frank Blackmarr were there any other passengers (who were doctors) on the Carpathia that provided medical care for 1st Class survivors?

So when I was looking at some photos of the Carpathia crew, I saw a man listed as Hungarian Supernumerary Officer right here, I saw that on Second Officer Bissets book, he listed the man as "Hungarian Supernumerary Officer Gunter Roth", I can't find nothing on the person so can anyone help me...
I was reading the other thread about Captains...who was as fault ect. The participants in that thread have it well covered and there's nothing I can add to it. But it raised a question I have thought about before but never really found an answer. Which is: If Rostron/Carpathia hadn't arrived...
