R.M.S. TITANIC:

R.M.S. TITANIC: Rare original photograph of Third-Class passenger Julia Barry. Julia boarded the Titanic in Queenstown on 11 April 1912 as a Third-Class passenger (ticket number 330844 which cost £7, 17s, 7d). Contemporary media reported that she was travelling with five others; she had left them behind in Ireland in her haste to return to the USA.

Julia Barry lost her life in the disaster and her body, if recovered, was never identified. Her brother Edward later travelled to the Cunard pier in the hope she was among the saved. Her sister Mary Cuffe had only learned that she was aboard when she saw her name on a list of the lost and was then contacted by her brother Edward who confirmed she was aboard. 8cm x 14cm. Ex-Phil Gowan collection.
