The night before she boarded the titanic, she gave some cins to a wandering man he told her she was going on a long journey. "There will be a tragedy but you will be saved", and she did. She survived the sinking of the titanic and died at age 91. She was 28 when she was on the titanic, traveling with 14 other Irish people.
There are various figures quoted for the number of people on board the Titanic at the time of its sinking. Some sources quote 2223 people while others cite 2228. This is due to discrepancies, errors, and omissions in the original passenger lists. Before it sank, there were 2,223 people on board, and 1,517 lost their lives.
Yes, there was George 5 who was crowned just a year before- in 1910.
Titanic's last port-of-call before Queensland was in Cherbourg, France.
The book was written 14 years before the titanic set sail and the story was almost identical to what happened to titanic!
The RMS Olympic did not sink. It was the sistership of the famous ill-fated liner, the RMS Titanic. The Olympic went on to serve as a warship in WWI, then returned to being a lavish passenger liner until the 1930's, when the Olympic (nicknamed "Old Reliable") was sold, and scrapped.There is also a lesser-known sistership of the Titanicand Olympic, named the Britannic. It was supposed to be bigger and more luxurious than the Titanic, but, just before it set sail, WWI broke out, and the Britannic had to be used as a hospital ship, rather than a luxury passenger liner. So all of the Britannic's lavish interior was stripped and replaced with hospital equipment. The HMHS Britannic was sunk by either a torpedo or a sea mine (no one knows for sure) in the Mediterranean Sea.Also, just one more thing, something that's kind of cool to know, is that Captain Edward Smith captained both the Olympic and the Titanic (he planned to retire after the Titanic came back to England from New York, but, as we know, he died aboard the Titanic). Also, a stewardess named Violet Jessop worked aboard the Olympic when a ship named the Hawke rammed into the Olympic's side (neither of the ships sank). Jessop was also a stewardess aboard the Titanic when the Titanic sank, and she survived... only to become a nurse aboard the Britannic. She also survived that shipwreck.

Charles Herbert Lightoller was the second in the commanding officers aboard the Titanic. He boarded the ship just two weeks before she left port. Charles Herbert Lightoller served as the first commanding officer during the sea trials before the real sailing began. He survived the devastation caused by the Titanic s crash with an iceberg.
Before the R.M.S Titanic was it's sister ship The Olympic.

yes
I never knew this before, but the binoculars were actually on the Titanic, but locked up inside a locker that no one bothered to look into. Before second officer Henry Wilde was given the job, the position belonged to David Blair. Blair had kept the binoculars inside a locker in his original cabin aboard the Titanic, but after he was moved, the room wasn't occupied. Therefore, no one knew the binoculars were on board.
You may come aboard and stow your gear below. I'm making sure that all of our passengers are safely aboard before I close the hatch.
