Carpathia's Dr McGee

[L.Kirby]

During one of the Antiques Roadshows episodes, the daughter of Dr McGee presented a cigarette case, award and 2 medals awarded to him for part played in assisting the Titanic survivors.

The Cigarette case contained the following inscription:

Presented to Dr McGee

as a slight token of affection and asteem
by these survivors of the Titanic April 15 1912.

Can anyone help with the 3 passenger names listed, they were not named, not clear enough for identification.
I would guess they were First Class Passengers.

Was this an episode from the British or the American Roadshow series? I've seen most, but not all, of the American series but have not seen this item on any of those I saw. My guess would be that the three First Class passengers might be Margaret Brown, Emma Bucknell and Martha Stone, since they seemed to have taken the lead in materially recognizing t tance provided by the Carpathia's officers and crew.

I have rechecked the episode of the Antiques Roadshow. It is English and filmed in Poole on the Dorset Coast to celebrate the 750 anniversary of the Bourgh.
I believe it was in 1998.

Perhaps someone might remember this screaning

One of the passengers is a Mr.

Thanks for the update. Our local PBS affiliate in Cincinnati has purchased episodes of the British series which will air here after the first of the year. I'll be on the lookout for this one. Lou
