• On April 9, 1912, Maud left St. Ives, Cornwall, England, to travel to Southhampton to board a passenger ship for America.
• Because of a coal strike, the ship Maud was to board had no coal. The White Star Line wanted it’s newest ship Titanic to sail so all the Line’s other ships had to give their coal to Titanic.
• Maud traveled with a friend of her mothers - Mrs. Agnes Davies and her two sons. Maud shared a room with Mrs. Davies and her youngest son.
• White Star wanted a full passenger list for Titanic’s maiden voyage so they gave Maud a Second-class ticket– Ticket 33112 L36 15S

Titanic’s location when it struck the iceberg
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanic#Departure_and_westbound_journey
This is believed to be the iceberg that sank the Titanic. The photograph was taken from the deck of the Western Union Cable Ship, Mackay Bennett, commanded by Captain DeCarteret. The Mackay Bennett was one of the first ships to reach the scene of the Titanic disaster. According to Captain DeCarteret, this was the only berg at the scene of the sinking when he arrived. It was assumed, therefore, that was responsible for the tragedy.

• Lifeboat A floated off Titanic’s deck.• Lifeboat B floated upside down.• Lifeboat 4 started out with 30 people but had 60
by the time it reached the Carpathia.• By the time Collapsible Boat D was launched at
2:05 am, there were still 1,500 people on board Titanic and only 47 seats in the lifeboat. Crew members formed a circle around the boat and linked arms to ensure that only women and children could board. Second Officer Lightoller threatens the crowd with his revolver.
• Lifeboat 6 was photographed as it approached Carpathia, so it is known to have had 26 people aboard at that point.

Maud’s Pocket Watch• Maud shared a cabin with a
friend of her mother’s, Mrs. Agnes Davis and her young son, John.
• At some point Joseph, Mrs. Agnes Davis’ older son, took items that were on the dresser in Maud and Agnes’ room and put them in one of his pockets.
• The items were found on his body and given to his mother Agnes.
• Agnes recognized one of the watches as Maud’s and returned the watch to Maud.
• It has been in the family’s possession ever since.

• Special thanks to Carol Schwab for all the time and effort she has spent researching and sharing my grandmother's story. She has put together a tribute picture book through Kodak Gallery. She has given many wonderful presentations on my grandmother this past year. She has also put together a tribute scrapbook for family members.
• The account that I was told by my aunts and uncles was that grandmother was the last person off on her side of the boat. That the people in the boat threatened to throw any one else in the water who was put in the boat. My grandmother being small was "thrown" in the boat by the captain. None of the recorded accounts tell the story like this, but they all tell the story a slightly different way.
