Excellent site! I just came here to see if there really was a Cavell on the Titanic and I've been online all day!
I would really appreciate any information about George Henry Cavell, I have read his biography and the transcript of his evidence at the inquiry (which was fascinating and has brought up a lot of questions that I might have to air here!)
I have read somewhere that the White Star Line didn't like the surviving crew to work on their other ships, but I know that there was a George Cavell who worked on the 'Olympic' Southampton - New York service in 1921 and in 1924 and also a George Henry Cavell who crewed on the 'Majestic' in 1922. I think that these two crewmen are the same person and as they/he is the same age as the George Henry Cavell on the Titanic could it be the same person?
I hope that made sense.
I am of course trying to link him to my family tree so if anyone can tell me anything about his life after the disaster, or any personal details it really would make my day.
Thanks
Amanda
