Lifeboat No.1 had 12 people in it.
The Titanic carried 20 lifeboats with a total seating capacity of 1,178 people
When the last lifeboat was launched, roughly 1,500 people were still on Titanic. This number is uncertain because many people were already in the water and some of the living were pulled into boats.
There were 712 survivors in Titanic's lifeboats.
After lifeboat 12 took the remainder of people off the overturned lifeboat B, she weighed low in the water with 70 people.
Lifeboat number 1 carried 5 passengers and 7 crew members, making it a total of 12 people. The lifeboat's capacity was about 45. It was later speculated that the 5 passengers, since they were mostly all from one family, had bribed Officer Murdoch (the officer who launched the boat) to give them a lifeboat all to themselves. This family, the Duff-Gordons, later paid all the crew members in the lifeboat for their lost wages and supplies when the ship sank, and thus people took this as a bribe. In truth, there was no bribery, it was simply kindness taken out of context by the media, and Officer Murdoch launched the boat because the ship was starting to sink fast, and no other people were nearby. He had to get the next lifeboat ready. So, lifeboat 1 had the fewest people, with 12 passengers and crew.

The poor people that were lucky enough to get on a lifeboat were mainly women and children since they were prioritized, there might have been a few men but it is unlikely.
