Visitingthe Titanic cemeteries is a heart-wrenching experience. I was not sure what to expect and foundmyself pondering what it must have been like for the people on the Titanic thatfateful night. And what it must havebeen like for the people of Halifax and how the tragedy overwhelmed the city.

I didnot see the cemeteries as a tourist attraction but as a place to pay solemnrespect to all who perished and as well to those who survived.

The 3cemeteries used were Fairview Lawn (121 graves), Mount Olivet (19 graves) andBaron de Hirsch (10 graves). Each cemetery has informational panels indicatingthe location of the grave sites.

Avisit to these sites can be quite emotional given the extent of the tragedy. Ihave created a map so you can see the locationof the cemeteries andtheir distance from the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic where the permanentdisplay is kept.

I meta lady from Australia when I was there last summer. Her great uncle perished in the sinking andshe was looking for his gravesite. Shedid not seem to know much about what else there was to see so I gave her my mapof the titanic interest points. She wasso grateful. She was amazed at the Halifax connection to the Titanic.

The layoutof the tombstones at Fairview Lawn is interesting. They are arranged in the shape of a ship'shull. Most of the grave markers are thesame. These ones were paid for by the ownerof the Titanic.

Somegraves remained without any names for a long time. Modern technology has helped to identifythose graves without a name. Informationmarkers in the cemeteries explain how this came about.

Onething that cannot be missed is the grave of the ‘unknown child’ at Fairview Lawn. Thiscan be especially heartbreaking. When no one came forward for the little boythe crew of the cable ship that found him, the Mackay-Bennett, took care of thefuneral arrangements.

Tothis day, visitors leave flowers and teddy bears for the baby. This is probably the most sought after gravesite in all of the Titanic cemeteries.

It is remarkable that 95 years after the disaster, DNA testing wasable to identify the child as Sidney Goodwin from Britain.

Hisparents and siblings also perished.

Andthen there is the pair of child’s shoes that were donatedto the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic in 2002. They came from the family of apolice sergeant who was working in Halifax at the time of the disaster.

TheHalifax police department was given the responsibility of guarding the personalbelongings of victims. A small pair of shoes was among the belongings. Instead of seeing the shoes destroyed thepolice sergeant kept them.

Thestory and the shoes remained in the family. The sergeant’s grandson decided in2002 to donate the shoes to the museum.

Aftermuch investigation the museum was sure that the shoes were authentic. They werealso very sure that the shoes belonged to the little boy known as the ‘unknown child’. The shoes are now ondisplay in the museum.

Halifaxwill never forget little Sidney Goodwin.
