Frederick Tyers was a British subject and friend of Arthur Jackson Mitchell. Both of them were from Nottinghamshire, England. Tyers was lost in the Lusitania disaster, but his body was recovered and buried, #17.
Arthur Jackson Mitchell saw Tyers picked up from the sea, but Tyers did not survive. Tyers’ parents were comforted that he had been seen to be picked up. His body was returned to Nottingham for burial.
