I am a college student doing a paper on the Titanic. The topic is the heroes of Titanic. Can anyone tell me some information, or where I might go to get more people for this topic?

well heather, do you have any people yet?
one person i would write about would definately be Harold Lowe. i can get you the information on anyone you need just let me know ok :wink:

What about Molly Brown? How'd she get the name "unsinkable?"

I don't kno how Molly got that name. Maybe if u watch the movie that might help. I have a book on Ballard's discovery called Exploring the Titanic, How the greatest ship lost, was found by: Robert D. Ballard if u want to kno bout his discovery and what happened. It has pics of some of the rooms like the Turkish Bath and what a second class stateroom looked like in 1912. It also has a map of Titanic. Let me kno if u want any info on his discovery and I'll tell u what it says. Unless of course u hav the book that is.

How about u rite about Bruc Ismay or Thomas Andrews the Titanic's Shipbuilder?

Ismay in my opinion is hardly a hero of Titanic.. more like a coward in my eyes.

Wallace Hartley and the band. Isador and Ida Strauss are another wonderful couple, while neither of them survived their story is fasinating, her refusing a seat to stay with her husband. The firemen and engineers who kept the ship going as long as possible..The postal workers who tried to get the mail to a higher level of the ship and lost their lives saving the mail.. Harold Bride and Jack Phillips..There's SO many to choose from..

how about the Capt. Arthur Roston of the Carpathia? He did save 6 people that went down w/ Titanic?

Well, considering the origianl post was made back in May, I don't think anymore posting about what this young lady should write about will do any good. But...just for the sake of argument...I agree with Rosie. Ismay is by no means a hero of that night.

I wasn't a member in May so I didn't kno that. :o Plus, U'd think they would delete the boards that aren't being used anymore.

yea, you'd think they would..it would make sence....but..you can look at the date when someone posts somethin on this board....it's right above the post they make....I'm sure that made no sence at all, but look around on the page...you'll see the date posts were made.
