Titanic 2021: Rhoda Abbott

 Titanic 2021: Rhoda Abbott by ric gustafson


Rhoda Abbott and her two sons had moved to England. She had recently divorced her husband who was a middleweight boxer. After spending time with her widowed mother, she and her sons were returning to the US. All three stayed on board as the liner sank. All three were tossed into the bitter cold Atlantic. Rhoda got on board Collapsible A. Her two sons did not. Rhoda and the others on the Collapsible were saved because Officer Harold Lowe got everyone on Lifeboat 14. Rhoda Abbott was the only woman who was flung into the ocean and survived. She died in London in 1946 at age 73.
