I would like to say a big thank you to the FOSOC (Friends of Southampton Old Cemetery), for the good work they do.

Another person I would like to thank is Brian Ticehurst whose books, Titanic Memorials World-wide, where they’re Located, and his other is called, Titanic Victims Discovered in the Old Cemetery-Common Cemetery. These two books and helped me no-end in finding Titanic related graves and memorials.

My last thank you are to the many people who worked hard and discovered these graves, there’s too many to mention.
