Carpathia's passengers and crew

[Andrew Maheux]

Hi does anybody know when any of the Carpathia's passengers and crew died and who they were?

Thanks

Andrew

Andrew: Are you asking about the passengers and crew that were on board when picking up Titanic victims? There are a few crackerjack researchers here, and I bet that they have come across the names in their searches. As far as a compilation from one person, who knows.
You can do a quick search and find out right away what happened to "Bissett". I know he later captained the Queen Mary and he wrote a couple books so he is a fairly easy find.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Hi, Colleen!

I'm not certain if this is what Andrew was referring to, but Franz Willwerth died at sea during the Carpathia's 'Titanic voyage.' He was being deported from the U.S. along with a number of other people.

All my best,

George

hi Andrew..a potentially loaded question there.. if indeed you are speaking of the entire list.. which brings me to my question...does anyone know how many passengers were on the Carpathia that day ? ... what was the capacity of the ship ? thanks

 

[Andrew Maheux]

Just the ones people know of.

Thanks

Andrew

Has anybody heard of Simon Senecal, who is purportedly a Montreal merchant, and passenger aboard the Carpathia?

If so, what do you know about him?

Any information would be appreciated...

Can any one tell me where I can get a listing of the crew of the Carpathia? The problem for me is all I know from my mother is that her uncle was one of the crew members that played a part in saving Lady Astor's life. His mother used to say "All that mans money and all he got was a medal"........ I need to find out where they came from as well as I do not know which side of the family he came from. Can any one help Please.

Thank you Samuel, I will check through them to find the right area HOPE ! Can any one tell me if there is and I am sure there is a listing of those who received medals?

Is there any trace of any crew member coming from Sussex: (Lewes, Shoreham, Brighton) or Durham and or having the name - Billinghurts

I am also looking to find out if there is anyone (other than my grandfather) who was on the Carpathia the night the Titanic sank. He was a young boy at the time and he will be 99 in July of this year. Is there a list of survivors from the Carpathia anywhere?? thanks! Barb

Hello Barb,

Try the Ellis Island website at www.ellisisland.org.

Hello Jason,

Happy New Year. Hope you are keeping well.

My understanding is that the Ellis Island web-site only contains Lists of incoming passengers.
http://www.ellisisland.org/search/ship_date.asp?letter=c&half=1&sname=Carpathia&year=1912
The only Carpathia Lists that I know of that have any association with Titanic are of Titanic's surviving passengers: 06/18/1912 - Southampton. The man Barb is looking for was an outgoing passenger. Do such records exist? I recall other posts asking about Carpathia's Passenger List.

Regards,
Lester

Quite right, Lester; in fact there have been a couple of threads asking about Carpathia's passenger list. They can be found here.

And yes, the Ellis Island manifests are for incoming ships only.

Hi Lester,

Happy New Year to you as well. Yes, thanks, I am keeping well; hope you are too.

You're right, my mistake, so I stand corrected,.
