What was the survival status of all people aboard the Titanic?
I currently cannot answer any questions regarding the crew or staff that were aboard the Titanic. The dataset I am using only includes information on passengers that were aboard the Titanic. Consequently, there is no information for any crew or staff members that were aboard. Therefore, if I wanted to ask a question regarding the survival status of all those aboard the Titanic I would be unable to do so.
3. The Dataset I need
The dataset I need to answer the questions above would have to contain all information regarding the crew/staff aboard the Titanic. The dataset I am currently using is based on data collected from Encylopedia Titanica's records. Encylopedia Titanic does have a complete database that includes information for both the passengers and the crew however it is only available with the purchase of annual membership of £10.00. I would initially attempt to contact the organization through their webpage explain my reasoning for wanting the data and ask for access to their database for free. Alternatively, if this were to fail I would pay the £10.00 for access which is equivalent to approximately $18 CDN.
Other questions I could ask if I were able to obtain this data:
- What percentage of crew members survived?
- What is the difference in survival for passengers vs. crew?
