On April 10, 1912, RMS Titanic set sail from Southampton, England, on her maiden voyage. On board was a passenger who was born in Bradford County, Pennsylvania. When the ship collided with an iceberg on April 15th, this person was one of the survivors, though her husband was lost in the sinking of the ship. Explore this story and learn about Bradford County’s connection to one of the most well-known shipwrecks in history.

This program will be presented by Matthew Carl, BCHS Executive Director.
