    A list of which stewards were in charge of which cabins?

    Most of us know that Etches was in charge of A-36 and eight other cabins. What I would like to know is which stewards in first class were in charge of what specific cabin. If anyone could provide me a list of who attended what, I would be very grateful.

    Might anyone be able to lend input on this c.1890-1900 photo of a steamship’s crew?

    Might anyone be able to lend any input on this photograph? It was taken by "W.A. Williams, Gun Hotel, High Street, Wapping" [East London, England] and measures approximately 3 by 5 inches. I believe it was taken sometime in the 1890s or early 1900s and shows the victualing crew of a ship; the...

    Where did the First Class Bedroom Stewards Sleep?

    I've been reading "Guide to the Crew of the Titanic" by Guntar Babler, and it doesn't explain where they would sleep while off duty. Scotland Road doesn't make sense for their quarters as they would need to be relatively close to 1st Class. Did they have their own cabins in 1st Class?

    Where did the 1st Class stewards sleep?

    So I was looking over the deck plans and I saw where the Titanic's second class stewards slept(E Deck Port Side on Scotland Road), but where did the 1st Class Stewards sleep? Did they have a designated room or did they have cabins?

    Stewards on Boat Deck

    I was looking at the plans for the Boat Deck and I realised there were no rooms for stewards on that deck. In the case that a passenger on Boat Deck needed the assistance of a steward, would someone have to climb all the way up from A Deck or B Deck? I don't imagine that White Star would leave...

    Widener Family Steward????

    Does anyone know who the Widener Family's Steward would have been. The Wideners occupied Suites C-80 to C-82. Perhaps one of you might know who the First Class steward on C-Deck was. Thanks in advance! William
