The Junior 3rd Engineer on the RMS Titanic. A résumé of his life can be found on the Encyclopedia Titanica website that (in April 2022) incorrectly gives his age as 39 years at the time of his death. As his birth was registered in the 3rd quarter of 1873, and also that he was baptised on 6 July 1873, he would have been aged 38 years when he died.
