Lost Photos of the Titanic and The Stories Behind Them

The Titanic "Orphans"

This is a photo of Michel and Edmon Navratil, ages 4 and 2. They were named Louis and Lola since the boys were too young to give their own names. They were left orphaned, temporarily, after their father died on the Titanic. They made it to New York and were able to be claimed by their mother who saw this photo of them in a newspaper.
