Hey all!
I would really appreciate it if anyone had ANY knowledge concerning these questions:
1. Did Jack Phillips and Harold Bride know each other before boarding the Titanic at Belfast? I have read that they didn't and then again that they had been friends since 1911, when Carpathia operator Harold Cottam introduced them to each other...? In his testimony Bride said he did not know Jack but...?
2. Bride said he kept the log book (proces-verbal) up until they left the ship, yet he didn't have a copy of it when reaching the Carpathia. What happened to the PV, did he forget to take the copy with him?
3. Jack Phillips was there in Ireland, Clifden wireless station in 1910 when Guglielmo Marconi was there doing tests with the new apparatus (creating lasting communication with Nova Scotia) Could this have been why Marconi chosed Jack to be the Titanic's operator?
4. What kind of a family Jack Phillips had? I know nothing of him, I just simply CAN'T seem to find any information!
5. Did Mr. Marconi really travel to US when he leared of the disaster in order to meet his surviving Junior when the Carparhia docked?
If anyone comes up with something not-so-often-heard information of the two operators then please don't hesitate to reply this message! I need every piece of knowledge I can get.
Waiting...
