Just come across this message by accident.
My mother has told me a little about her Great Uncle Arthur Jackman; whom left England, and was going to sail on the Titanic but luckily it was full so he went to America on another ship.
The reason he went was to patent his crucible stoppers.
My mum says he came back once with his wife (my mum was only a little girl at the time), but she remembers them well; when they went to the station to meet them they knew straight away which one Uncle Arthur was because him and his lovely wife had great big fur coats on.
