Purely out of interest - has anyone been able to 'claim' the following young
man who went down on the Titanic in April 1912.
He appears under the Victualling Crew Listings:
Casswell, C. - Saloon steward - age 32
Assuming he was born circa 1879 - 1880, the nearest I can get in my data is:
Cuthbert Casswell appearing below in the 1881 UK Census....
