Bess,
Upon doing some more research I found the answer to my own question. The nine-man Harland & Wolff Guarantee Group was a select group of workers, headed of course by Thomas Andrews, who would all accompany Titanic on her maiden voyage to see to either any unfinished work, or perhaps problems that might appear on the voyage to New York and back. This elite group of men was very select, and was based on a person's enthusiasm and ability. It was considered to be a mark of respect from the employers, Harland & Wolff to be selected for the group, especially where apprentices were concerned. Sadly, all of the members of the Guaranteed Group were lost in the sinking. |
