ONE OF OVER 2,208 PASSENGER & CREW STORIES - EVA MIRIAM HART, BORN JANUARY 31, 1905

  Titanic bigraphy - Eva Miriam Hart
   

Eva Hart was a pretty child with long curly locks when she boarded Titanic with her parents in 1912. The family was immigrating from England to Canada. Although just 7 years old at the time of the disaster, she retained vivid memories of Titanic that she shared throughout her lifetime. On board the ship she became enamored of a French Bulldog named Gamin de Pycombe and throughout her life would have a special fondness for that breed.

When Titanic struck the iceberg her father went to investigate and Eva remembered his ghostly pallor when he returned to the cabin. The family went on deck where Eva and her mother were allowed to enter a lifeboat while her father remained on board and perished. She always remembered his telling her to “be a good girl and hold Mommie’s hand.”

Like most other Titanic survivors, Eva was never able to rid herself of memories of the screams of people drowning. She and her mother returned to England and lived out their lives there. Miss Hart enjoyed some early success as a singer and later had a successful career with an engineering company. She later became a Justice of the Peace. In her latter years she was a popular presence at Titanic gatherings. Never married, she died on Valentine’s Day of 1996 at the age of 91.
