Who were the 66 children under sixteen to survive the Titanic?
The 66 children under sixteen who survived the Titanic were a diverse group from various social backgrounds and nationalities. They were likely able to survive due to a combination of factors, such as being prioritized for evacuation, having access to lifeboats, and being accompanied by adults who ensured their safety. The exact identities and stories of these children have been documented through survivor accounts, historical records, and research conducted on the Titanic disaster.
Why did Lorraine Allison survive?
Lorraine Allison (1909-1912), three years old, was the only child passenger in first class who died on the Titanic. Her parents also drowned, but her baby brother Trevor, 11 months old, survived. Lorraine Allison was only 3 years old when she and her family traveled on the Titanic. They were preparing to go to the lifeboats when they were told the ship was sinking, but their maid panicked and took her younger brother, Trevor, and disappeared (it was later found she went right to a lifeboat). Lorraine's parents searched all throughout the ship trying to find him. They took Lorraine with them, and without realizing the progression of time, they ended up missing most of the lifeboats. Towards the end, Mr. Allison convinced Mrs. Allison that they should at least get Lorraine to a lifeboat, and they asked a crewman where boats were loading. The crewman told them that there were none left, but they happened to find collapsible A still jammed up on the forward boat deck- tied to the ship, but loading passengers. Mrs. Allison and Lorraine boarded it, but before the officers could launch it, the water rushed up onto the deck. Now, the officers were fighting to unfasten the lifeboat so it could float (it was being dragged under water and the lifeboat was sinking)- the two Allison's still in the boat. Finally, the officers cut the ropes, but given the suddenness, and the fact that the ship was dropping like a rock, the lifeboat shot upwards to the surface and half flipped over- dumping nearly everyone in it into the water. Chaos was erupting in the area and at least 100 people were now swarming this tiny lifeboat, and neither Lorraine nor Mrs. Allison were able to recover onto it. It's also unlikely that they were able to reunite once in the water. Lorraine and the the rest of the Allison family, with the exception of Trevor, were killed. Lorraine was the only first class child to die in the sinking.
