Empress of Ireland – Canada’s Titanic
May 8 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm
A talk by Helen Baggott.
When the RMS Empress of Ireland sank in 1914, more passengers lost their lives than on Titanic – yet few have heard of the tragedy. I reveal the story of the sinking – and three families from Dorset and Somerset that were affected. Illustrated by postcards and photographs, this talk remembers a forgotten tragedy.
