Hi, I am trying to unravel a mystery relating to a Titanic survivor. I have a letter mentioning a male passenger who travelled to Canada from Britain in 1913. During the voyage he gave a lecture relating to how he had survived the Titanic wreck one year previous and how he had been in the water for over 3hours and then picked up by Carpathia. He also mentions that his only sister died from shock prior to receiving his marconigram stating that he had survived. The letter refers to this man as Mr Williams and it appears that his forename may have been Evan. There are only three male survivors named Williams and none have the forename of Evan. Either this man was an incredible showman and lier or there is some mix up relating to his name. Does anyone have any ideas????
