- My grandfather was on board the the Carpathia. His name was Arthur Vale and he was a stoker.
- My grandmother, Anna Oberg, immigrated to the US from Sweden and was on the Carpathia when it picked up the Titanic survivors in 1912. However, I cannot find any historical documentation showing the names of passengers originally on the Carpathia on that trip as opposed to the manifests created later to document the Titanic survivors.
- I've done a family geneology on my mother's side linking her as a descendant of the Johann Sebastian Bach family, which also married into the second generation of the Ringling family. On my father's side, I've been told my great-uncle was a Titanic Survivor. My investigation finds that unfounded, but it is likely to be partially true. So I too would like to find a list of Carpathian passengers on its fateful voyage rescuing Titanic survivors. It could also be that another uncle was aboard the Carpathia when it was sunk, and survived (the Carpathia was herself sunk in 1918 towards the end of WW1 in shallow water off the West Coast of Ireland, as part of a coal convoy heading to the USA as part of the war effort. Her wreck is shallow enough for divers to have explored it).
- I have been searching for the passenger list of the Carpathia when it picked up some of the survivors of the Titanic. My father-in-law, Gregori Switenki was one of the Carpathia passengers. We do not know if he disembarked at Halifax or New York.
my grandfather was on the carpathia when it picked up the survivers of the titanic his name was Joseph ross colquhoun from Scotland he was an episcapalian minister, i found some of his writings talking about the titanic a few years ago and i am looking for the list of people who were on the carpathia when it picked the survivers of the titanic .
The captain of the Carpathia was Captain Rostron, who had only been promoted to the rank of Captain for a few months before the tragedy.
It should be mentioned that the characters of Rose and Jack in the 1997 film 'Titanic' were entirely fictional- they didn't exist in real life.
