mystery ship

Could anyone provide me with a list of potential mystery ships during the Titanic sinking. I've been doing research on supposed mystery ships but can't find much. I've heard of the Mount Temple, Almerian and a mystery schooner reported by Captain Moore of the Mount Temple. Are there any other...

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...

I have read many books on Titanic and believe Capt. Lord was a tyrant who bullied his men and scared them to the point where they dared not go against him insisting they go help Titanic which was obviously in distress. It is against maritime law laws of the courts and the laws of God and decency...

This is the place for ship wreaks that are unidentified that some of you might want to keep up on, or talk about. Put them here until they get a name and a topic of their own. The first ship I wanted to bring up for this thread is a wrecked ship or should I say pieces of the ship that might...

When Titanic Exhibition came to Buenos Aires -Argentina-, there was a big map showing the position of all the ships in the disaster's area. There was one named Paris (¿or Parisian?) that, accoding to this map, could have been close enough Titanic, but besid this possible location of Parisian...

Hello Fellow Titanic Researchers and Enthusiast. I just read about this book on Titanicbooksite.com, which describes the book as an expanded and revised version of "A Ship Accused". a book which was very much enjoyed by me, as are his other works. so I seriously considering getting this book...

As taken from Day 10 of the U.S. hearinings. Senator Burton : you are very positive you saw that ship ahead on the port bow are you? Mr. Boxhall : Yes, Sir quite positive. Senator Burton : Did you see the Green or Red light? Mr. Boxhall : Yes ; I saw the side lights with my naked...

I purchased this postcard yesterday at an antique market, but I can't figure out which ship she is. The only thing on the back of it states the location which is somewhere on the African coast (thanks to Hattie for translating the words in German), but nothing to indicate which vessel she is...

Hi all, I've used my results as discussed in another thread to try and understand the ship as seen at about 3.15am on 15/4/12 by the Carpathia. At this time, the OOW on the Carpathia saw two mast lights of a ship two points on the starboard bow. Some officers (not Rostron) saw the red...

Hi all, Here is a very rough draft of an article that I am writing, hopefully with a view to sending it to a magazine for publication. Hope you enjoy - and please feel free to add to it (no flames though please!) - It is generally felt by most historians, researchers and mariners that the...

No doubt Senan's new article is designed to raise hackles. After all he's a professional writer who knows what effect he's trying to achieve. Rarely have I read something so patronising! From the title to the final line, theories are presented as cold, hard facts with no caveats about...

The Titanic Commutator Volume 12, Number 4, 1988 had the following cutout ballot in the Supplement section: The CALIFORNIAN controversy continues and Mr. Kalman Tanito of Finland believes we ought to take a poll of the members to get the overall view on this subject. We are now giving YOU...

According to this book issued by Yarmouth County Historical Society in 1999, Mr. Harrison`s research had awakened David Eno `s latest interest in the sinking of the Titanic. Eno was aware of Samson`s arrivals in Isafjordur April 6 and again April 20 1912. In response to this Eno was able to...

In the movie - "a Night To Remeber" 1958 - a ship was in view - the California - I believe. Is this true - how far were they away?? Did they ever come to the rescue - if not - why not?? John

I have just read the Samson was a seal pouching ship with it's running lights off about two miles away from Titanic. When Titanic started firing flares the Samson assumed that it was a british frigate attempting to capture the pouched seals. So she left her running lights off and got up steam...

Hi all. I'm almost afraid to ask this question, what with the polarised points of view out there on this subject - but here goes! I've been re-reading "Titanic - An Illustrated History" again, (it's been four months since last time; I was getting withdrawal symptoms), and have become...
