Passengers Michel (1908–2001)and Edmond (1910–1953)Navratil
"There were vast differences of people's wealth on the ship, and I realized later that if we hadn't been in second-class, we'd have died."
-– Michel Navratil
The toddler Navratil brothers were placed in Titanic's last lifeboat and arrived in New York as "Louis and Lolo, the Titanic orphans." When their mother spotted their photograph in a French newspaper, it was learned that they had been kidnapped by their father and were traveling under assumed names. From 1992 until his death, Michel (left) was Titanic's last male survivor. |
