Daily Event for April 15


April 15, 1912 the White Star Line's Titanic sank after hitting an iceberg the night before. Over 1,500 people
perished in the freezing waters of the North Atlantic. The story is well known and there is no need for me to
revisit it today so I have added some new material to the Titanic pages on MaritimeQuest.

Photos of passengers Margaret "Molly" Brown, Major Archibald W. Butt U.S. Army, William T. Stead and
Isidor Straus.

I have also added scans of the original hand written passenger list.

You can view the entire Titanic gallery starting from page 1 of the photo gallery. There are many sub-galleries
including the Art of Titanic, and several photo collections. I hope these pages stand as a tribute to those who
built, sailed on and died on the great ship.
