Okay, so I know this is a pretty crappy thing to post, seeing as I can't show the pic( I don’t have a way to get it on the computer), but I thought a description might help to find out if anyone else has this pic, or maybe just to find possibilities as to who is in the pic. I bought a book at a second hand store, and this page was used as a bookmark(the page had pics from Titanic, but was ripped out of another book). It has written underneath the photo:
'This is one of the few photographs taken of survivors third-class passengers.'
The page is double sided on white paper, and all the pics are black and white. The pages are
191-which has the pic we are discussing, and the famous pic of the young newspaper boy delivering the tragic evening news,
the back of the page (this one is 192)
Shows a diagram in the top showing the original plans to include 32 lifeboats,
and the bottom is a pic of the ice barrier drawn out on a graph type paper.
So if it sounds familiar, please tell me!
And now, on to the pic!!
So I broke it down yesterday, after spending over an hour trying to figure it out. I tried to identify the children(9)and women (4) through a process( my favourite) of elimination.
I started to eliminate, obviously, the children that did not survive, as I thought the children would be an easier place to start(boy, was I wrong!), and the children I had photos of. That brought the list down considerably to 20 3rd-class children,(including both Nicola-Yarred's)
The children I am looking at are:
Edvin Asplund, 3 of Sweden ( I have his sister’s (Lilian) pic taken in 1912)
Marie, 5, Eugenie, 3, and Helene Baclini, 9m of Lebanon
Virginia Emanuel, 5, of America
Hildur Hirvonen, 2, of America(Finn-America)
Meier Moor, 6 of Russia
Gerios, 7, Halim Moubarek, 4, of Lebanon
Luise Kink-Heilmann, 4 of Switzerland
Maria Nackid, m 22m, of Lebanon
Elias, 12 and Jamila Nicola-Yarred, 14, of Syria
Artur Olsen, 9 of Norway
Michael Jr, 4, and Mary Peter/Joseph, 2 of Syria
Beatrice 20m, and Marguerite 4 Sandstrom of Sweden
Assad Thomas/Tannous 5m of Lebanon
Georges, 7 and Maria Tuoma, 9 of Lebanon
I have exempted Lillian Asplund, Philip Aks, William and Neville Coutts, Bertram and Millvina Dean, Eleanor and Harold Johnson, Manca Karun, and Frank Goldsmith, because I have pics of all of them taken in or around the time Titanic sank, and I know none of the kids in the in are any of the above. I have also eliminated 1st and 2nd class children, due to the pic’s writing saying they are all 3rd class. The next post will carry a detailed description of the children and women.
