Allison family

They boarded the ship in Southampton along with four servants: a maid, Sarah Daniels (no relation to Bess); a nurse, Alice Cleaver;[5] a cook, Amelia Mary "Mildred" Brown; and a butler, George Swane.

Sarah had gone up on deck early to investigate the commotion and was hurriedly placed into a boat by a steward who promised to inform the Allisons of her whereabouts.

Bess was one of only four first-class women (including Ida Straus, Edith Corse Evans, and Ann Elizabeth Isham) who perished, while Loraine was the only child of first and second class to do so.

Hudson's body was transported to Chesterville, Ontario, to be buried in the family plot in Maple Ridge Cemetery.

The test was performed by DNA Diagnostics Center, a facility accredited by the American Society of Crime Laboratory Directors.

[11] A 1912 German silent film about the disaster, In Nacht und Eis (In Night and Ice), includes the Allison family story, but not by name.

The subplot regarding them was highly fictionalized and filled with historical inaccuracies: for example, it added the story of the long-standing myth that Alice (portrayed by Felicity Waterman) was a child murderess who stole Trevor in a fit of panic, thus forcing the rest of the family to remain on the ship looking for him until it was too late.
