Scene / Seen (Titanic Countdown Continued)

There were a number of Scandinavian passengers on the Titanic.

This person has a Finnish last name.

The victims of the sinking are buried in one area.  Below, I have done a crop of a tour group to show just how many people come see the grounds.

It should be noted that there are may graves here from those who died during the Halifax explosion also.  As the two events were only a few years apart, the city had experience with processing unknown dead.  Items found near the deceased were itemized and processed in hopes that a family member would come forward at some point.
