Titanic 2021: Countess of Rothes

 Titanic 2021: Countess of Rothes by ric gustafson


Lucy Martha Dyer Edwards became the Countess when she married Norman Leslie in 1900. She became a prominent philanthropist. The couple was going to celebrate their 12th wedding anniversary in California when she got on the Titanic. Her parents, her maid and her cousin joined her. 
After the liner was struck, the Countess and her cousin were put into Lifeboat 8. The Countess and seaman Thomas Jones kept the people calm during the rough night.
The Countess of Rothes died in 1965.
