My neighbor showed me a photo copy of doucs, tickets for passage on the Titanic (originals in a safe deposit box). He is 79 yrs. old. His father and uncle were born in England, not married, and in 1921 deceided to go to America. They purchased tickets, got a letter with information about boarding. They never made it to the ship, untill after the Titanic sailed without them. Why, they were nervous about the long trip, so went to a bar for a couple drinks and ended up getting drunk as missed the boat. Came to US later. Larry knows the doucs. and tickets are very valueable, has promised to leave them to his son.
