Florence Ware

“With nothing on but a nightgown I helped row one of the lifeboats for three hours,” said Mrs Florence Ware of Bristol, England.

“In our boat, there were a lot of women, a steward, and a fireman. None of the men knew anything about managing a small boat, so some of the women took charge. It was cold and I worked hard as I could at rowing until we were picked up. There was nothing to eat or drink on our boat.”

  • Miss Millvina Dean (2 February 1912 – 31 May 2009) was the youngest passenger (2months old) and the last survivor of the Titanic (97).
