Titanic Disaster Historical Documents Archive12,825 pages of documents, text, newspaper articles, and photos covering the Titanic disaster. Period original source material from the National Archives, The Library of Congress, and the British National Archives, archived on CD-ROMThe sinking of the ocean liner RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912 is remembered as one of the most dramatic events of the twentieth century. In a mere four hours after striking an iceberg, the largest passenger ship yet built sank while on its maiden voyage, claiming the lives of 1,517 persons. Many of those who perished on the ship came from prominent American, British, and European families. Among the dead were the noted British journalist William Thomas Stead and heirs to the Straus and Astor fortunes. The glamour associated with the ship, its maiden voyage, and its notable passengers magnified the tragedy of its sinking in the popular mind. Legends arose almost immediately around the night’s events, those who had died, and those who had survived. Heroes and heroines, such as “the unsinkable Molly Brown”, were identified and celebrated by the press. Some individuals were crowned as villains, such as the captain of the SS Californian, Stanley Lord and White Star Line Managing Director J Bruce Ismay. The disaster and the mythology of the Titanic continue to fascinate people many years after the event.The White Star Line signed the order to proceed with construction of the Titanic on April 30, 1907. Construction began at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland, and was completed on April 2, 1912. Most of the crew for the maiden voyage was hired on Saturday, April 6, 1912. The ship departed from Southampton, England on its first and final journey at noon on Wednesday, April 10, 1912. The ship stopped at Cherbourg, France, where it picked up additional passengers, including first class passengers Margaret (Mrs. J.J.) Brown, the Astors and the Wideners. It stopped again at Queensland, Ireland, to pick up more passengers. At 1:30 PM, Friday, April 12, it left Ireland for the open seas on its maiden voyage to the United States. It had 338 first class passengers, 279 second class passengers, 712 third class passengers, and a crew of 908.The Titanic hit the fatal iceberg at 11:40 PM Sunday night, April 14. Distress calls were sent from the Titanic, but help arrived too late. At 2:20 AM Monday, April 15, the Titanic went to the bottom in 13,000 feet of ocean. Finally, help did arrive, and between 4:10 and 8:10 AM, the Cunard Line’s Carpathia rescued 706 Titanic survivors. The Carpathia arrived in New York City at 9:00 PM on Thursday, April 18. Two days after the sinking, ships were dispatched back to the area to recover bodies. Eventually some 330 bodies were recovered. Some of the bodies were taken to North America, while others were buried at sea.In 1985, Dr. Robert Ballard, of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, led a team that discovered the final resting place of the Titanic and began periodic visits to the wreckage.

Smith, a Republican from Missouri. The hearings began on April 19, 1912, in New York City. The Senate inquiry is particularly useful because it was the most immediate. The inquiry began at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York the day after the survivors landed. James Cameron used the Senate transcripts extensively in researching his Oscar-winning movie. “The Senate records, for example, provide the exact words spoken by the bridge officers in the moments leading up to the collision,” Mr. Cameron has written. “Those scenes in my film are scripted and staged precisely as the event was described by witnesses.”A week after the proceedings began, the hearings were moved to the new caucus room of the Russell Senate Office Building in Washington, D.C. They were the first hearings to be held in that room. A total of 82 witnesses testified about ice warnings that were ignored, the inadequate number of lifeboats, the ship’s speed, the failure of nearby ships to respond to the Titanic’s distress calls, and the treatment of passengers of different classes. The hearings concluded on May 28, 1912, when Senator Smith visited the Titanic’s sister ship, Olympic, at port in New York, to interview some of its crew. When the Titanic sank, the Olympic was about 500 miles away.British Titanic Wreck Commissioner’s Court 1446 pages of computer text of testimony before the Court of Enquiry and the Court’s final report.Within two weeks after the sinking of the Titanic, the British Board of Trade established a Commission of Enquiry, chaired by High Court Judge Lord Mersey.

The British Inquiry cleared Captain Smith and the White Star Line of any negligence in the loss of the Titanic.
