My grandfather Henry Emile Trouteaud and his brother Edward bought ship tickets so their families could move from Guernsey Island to America. Great grandmother (Emma Elizabeth Hancock Trouteaud) became ill before they could leave so the sons returned the tickets. The ship sailed past Guernsey on its way out of the English Channel. Great grandmother was eating soup. The ship was the Titanic.
