  2. Please note that there was no ”Ernest Toder”on the Lusitania. This person was in fact Robert Ernest Foden, who survived. For some reason, he was listed twice, once as a survivor, once as a fatality.

  3. I have just found my Grandfathers name on the list above William Jones, it states that he was 1st waiter. On another site it said he was Mr Jones ABS 1st class. I am tring to learn more about him.I read his name on a memorail in Cobh. Hope I have have spelled that right. I do not even know what he looked like. can anyone help me with all this.
    Thank you

    Anna Calder

  4. James Robert Wilson was my great uncle I would like to find out more can anyone help me. Thanks I think he was from either hull or Beverly.

  6. Martin Casey was my great grandmothers brother. He was born on the Isle of Man,but lived most of his adult life in Liverpool. He was married to Georgina Dennett they had six children. His parents were Martin Casey and Jessie Gardiner. Martin was a cutler and Umbrella maker he was born in Ireland Jessie in Scotland. They also lived on the Isle of man

    • Hello David

      Could you tell us more about your grandfather. Did he leave an account of his experiences? What were his later years like? When did he pass away?

      Sincerely
      Mike

  8. While searching for Etienne Seurre,a chef and husband of my great aunt – nee Hearn and my paternal grandmothers sister- I came across George Maylor, boots steward. A great surprise that both sides of my family were on board and sadly lost.

  9. I have a wooden coat hanger belonging to my Grandad William Sephton, is it possible it came from the Lusitania? It has White Star line embedded in the wood.

  10. The one thing I find frustrating is not having any photos of Ferdinand Limberg/ Confectioner. my G Mothers husband. The one source would have been his Seamans card or trade papers, but sadly a clever person in National Archives Kew thought Lusitania records along with many more a waste of space!!!! & had them destroyed.

  13. My Grandfather was Edgar Hilton Joynson. To add to your database he was single, and the last definite address I have for him was 22 Sandown Road, Liverpool, his parents’ house on the 1911 census. I have copies of his recollections of that fateful voyage, which suggest he made for Lifeboat 1 from the 1st class dining saloon. He ended up in the water and was eventually picked up by a minesweeper (patrol boat Heron?). I can send you a full transcript of his account plus a photocopy of the original in his own hand if that would be of interest.

    • Hi Richard
      How good to hear from you. We’d be glad to build a bio from all of your generous material. Please send to
      Lusitaniasinking@yahoo.com
      We have a Facebook page just for relatives and if you’d like to join its called RMS Lusitania Association of Relatives

      Sincerely
      Mike

  14. My paternal grandfather was William Deakin Rylands. I don’t know too much about him. My father, William Edward Rylands was only two years old when his father died,he was born August 15th 1912. I do have a wedding photo of my Grandparents but know little else.My father did try to find out more. He did contact one of the crew who told him, my Grandfather was off the ship but went back to rescue someone and was never seen again.My grandmother married again soon after the sinking and my Grandfathers family did not take kindly to that.My father,when he was a teenager did locate a family member but they refused to acknowledge him. I do wish I knew more.
    I though this might be of interest to someone. I now live the U.S.A.

  16. You have misspelt the surname of my great Uncle who perished and was 1st class waiter on board the Lusitania it should read RITSON, Mr, Isaac (and not RISTON) Thank you Graham Ritson
