Correction: She was the last Titanic survivor with actual memories of the sinking.

At least two other survivors are living, but they were too young to have memories of the disaster -- 10 months old and 2 months old.

Yes Professor, Lillian was the last US survivor. The other two are Milvina Dean and Barbara West, they come from the UK. Even though Milvina was only a baby, her mother must have told her a lot about the sinking for she gives vivid recollections of the night in question. It's amazing how long these people have lived for.

Milvina is quite a star. Every collector of Titanic material has at least one postcard or photo signed by her. They crop up everywhere. Must say I hadn't thought that she was so young at the time: as you indicate Jenny, she's certainly got a lot of tales to tell about something she could not possibly have remembered Big Grin
