Henry Watson Dodds

Junior Assisant 4th Engineer on the RMS Titanic.

There would appear to some confusion as to the correct name of this man. Some records show him as Renny Dodds, but he can also be found on memorials as Renny W. Dodd or Renney W. Dodds, but his proper name would appear to have been Henry Watson Dodds. A full résumé of his life can be found on the Encyclopedia Titanica website that explains the 'Renney/Renny' was derived from his godfather, Sir William Renny Watson (1838-1900).

He is also commemorated on the Engineers Memorial, Andrews East Park, Above Bar Street, Southampton, SO14 7DW.
