Her age is up for question because she had just been awarded an order of the probate court to the sum of 7,500 dollers a year just for her clothes. Only awarded to children. Mo State archives
The court had her aged 15.( 2 weeks before titanic)
The life boat listings say she was just over 16 + 1
as you said.
She married into Maltese nobility and died at the age of 78 although the times newspaper in London have her age as only 77
Im glad you picked this up because this is one of the reasons i am researching her.
Thanks for your reply regards paul m ENGLAND
