On Thursday 11th April 1912, one hundred and thirteen steerage passengers (third Class) boarded Titanic at Queenstown (Cobh) in Cork. Fourteen of these passengers were from Addergoole Parish (Lahardane). Eleven of these fourteen died when RMS Titanic sank on her maiden voyage, east of Newfoundland, having struck an iceberg. The Mayo passengers are known locally as the Addergoole Fourteen. The 3 who survived were; Annie Kate Kelly, Delia McDermott, Annie McGowan. The 11 who perished were; Catherine Bourke, John Bourke, Mary Bourke, Mary Canavan, Pat Canavan, Bridget Donohue, Nora Fleming, James Flynn, Catherine McGowan, Delia Mahon, Mary Mangan. The loss of these 11 young emigrants represents the largest proportionate loss of life from any single locality on RMS Titanic and more importantly an extraordinary personal, economic and social loss for our small west of Ireland parish.
