Miss Julia Smyth, 20, of Kilcoghy, Co Cavan, boarded the Titanic at Queenstown as a third class passenger (ticket number 335432, £7 14s 8d). Her destination was New York City.
Julia Smyth was rescued, probably in lifeboat 13.
Miss Smyth made New York City her home following the Titanic disaster. She married Thomas White and lived in New York.
