Comment and discuss

I was discussing the movie Titanic with my mother when she told me something interesting. Julian Padro-Manent, a second class passenger on the Titanic, was a very close friend of my grandparents. I have a photograph of him at my christening in Havana, Cuba from 1961. He never married and had only one sister. My mother says he had a lovely photograph of the ship. I noticed you didn't have a lengthy biography on him. My mother remembers some of the stories he used to tell. Let me know if you would like any additional information on him. C. Downin Texas

To C Downin: I would be most interested to hear what Mr Padro y Manent had to say about his escape from the sinking liner. Peter. Peter Engberg-Klarström Stockholm, Sweden

I only read your comment today but I'd be really very interested to hear any stories that you can remember! Most of what we know of Titanic comes directly from English speaking survivors and sometimes I worry we may be missing significant - or at least interesting - facts from other sources. Please, tell us so this information can live on. All the best in any case.
