George Henry Cavell's Grave - Famous Grave - Titanic survivor

[@Lyntrick67]

It's such a shame that the Titanic society have not raised money for a decent stone for such a brave man. He must have been so confused and terrified during the sinking, yet he stayed level-headed enough to be able to help lower the lifeboats. Bless you, George, rest in peace xxx thanks Paul for this video x

[@jamesmcbride6304]

Another unsung hero. he deserves a decent headstone Thanks paul

[@stellastone8720]

I love the Titanic series, so many people lost their lives. A lot survived thanks to men like this man xx

[@lunevalleyparanormal]

The Titanic Society should watch your videos Paul & perhaps start to recognise those who lost their lives on that tragic night Thank you for paying your respects to George 🙏🏻

[@annettewalker3309]

Such a shame there is no plaque. God bless you George for all things you done on that fateful day. In our eyes you will never be forgotten. Good video Paul love and respect given xx

[@debbiemccarthy3864]

so sad to see his grave like that😪 ...thank you for the lovely tribute Paul 💙

[@joeweston3252]

huge respect to george what he went through his bravery hope they give him something more then whats currently at his resting place 😪

[@tracywarden477]

After everything this man had done on that fateful night you'd have thought that someone would have put a memorial stone there. Thanks again Paul for another informative vlog.

[@uknewslink]

Super vlog.

[@aliciacollins9886]

So so sad the state of his final resting place, and I agree he deserves to have a memorial. Thank you for sharing his story as always very informative and interesting

[@skyedancer3106]

Hi Paul, great video. Such a tragedy for thousands. 🙏 RIP

[@leechilds3725]

Rip Henry. Definitely needs a plaque beside his grave. So all the ships survivors are remembered.

[@gilltagg3352]

How very frightening to be in the situation he was in. A very brave man.

[@karenboouk531]

Hey Paul what is beautiful ship with a very sad story such a shame what happened that was her fate. So many died so sad. Thank you for this video see you in the next one sending love and hugs 🇬🇧🌹🌹🌹

[@DaisyMiller-jl9td]

Argh , I know this graveyard like the back of my hand. In the 70s my dad and I would clear graves that were neglected.. sadly my dad a retired fire fight passed last year and I plan to visit and relive our memories… early in the morning there’s soo much nature and a lovely crb apple tree , the fruits were edible and my dad had ate them as a boy. A friend of his buried near an entrance was killed by lightening whilst sheltering under a tree. Thankyou for taking me around. Few tears.. love your broadcasts 💐

[@susanthomas5464]

Thanks Paul .RIP Henry . I am very interested in ANYTHING to do with Titanic . RIP to all the people that perished on that awful night in 1912 .

[@jeanninehochet]

I am a Titanic buff so thank you for this series. Such a shame to see the condition of this brave man’s grave.

[@martinschermer5366]

Thanks again Paul and you are right there those people did try to help others and they are importend .they all disturb a headstone and should be remembered for what they did.

[@Pellegrineanita]

Paul, thank you sincerely for showing us and giving us this information on this unsung hero, I found this quite touching and sad that this brave man although in sheer fear did his best to keep the ship afloat for everyone has nothing to remember him, come on Titanic Society!! Give this hero a headstone which he is entitled to. And whoever stole the only acknowledgement of his name etc, bring it back please. Rip George Henry Gavell. To go back to sea? Very brave, sleep well sir xx

[@marlenawells3574]

Hi Paul! That’s so sad he has no headstone. I find your Titanic stories so entertaining. Great research! I so look forward to your videos of any kind. ❤️

[@traceybristow5566]

Hi Paul I like the programme about the titanic. I am glad that you are also doing the ones that lived and also died. Thank you for doing this. Tracey Bristow

[@tonymanuel500]

Cheers Paul. Titanic. The Greatest story ever told. So sad. Can only try and imagine what these people went through ❤

[@crystaldance5731]

So sweet of you Paul to pay respects to this man shame he didn’t get a headstone but at least he got to be buried with his wife in peace together thankyou Paul ❤️😊

[@pamelahall1495]

Aww Paul what a lovely video …I really enjoyed it …he should be recognised …I think someone should contact the Titanic society to get him a headstone…I have campaigned myself to get my grand uncles grave recognised in India /Pakistan as the Indian government took over looking after them in the 1940s …Army soldier who died at 27 …George would definitely have had PTSD…This poor man and I think that all of the survivors who were on the Titanic would have had PTSD …I really feel for what they went threw ….Thankyou Paul I love all of the Titanic stories and all of these videos…Best wishes X💔🥲

[@Cat-bz7tm]

Sad about his gravestone , when I’m in Southampton next year ile visit the grave , and plant some lavender . Rest in peace George ❤

[@Chr1sMccloud]

Hi Paul, having seen your video, I’ve emailed the titanic society website to see if we can get some sort of crowdfunding for a headstone at the very least.He surely deserves it

[@alisonwilliams1873]

Sad that this brave man doesn't have a stone on his grave. RIP George

Informative video Paul, it's sad to see how folks resting places change with time. Titanic was and is an imotive subject! What I'm learning from you is who, what and where the crew originated from, their respective professions and families and I find it really interesting. Keep on with you good work all across the board, I feel you've found your quest at this moment in time. Keep smiling 👻👻👻x

Fantastic video Paul. Your videos are informative and fantastic Everytime. Thank you for your hard work making these

[@UnusualThings1]

So nice of you

[@denniscluley6871]

Hi Paul, another great video. I think Wilfred is a hero, he saved other people, then saved himself. Nothing wrong with that. Then he went to serve on other ships, when you couldn't blame him if he never wanted to see the ocean again.

[@sibster8]

Nice video and it was of special interest as my wife is George's great grandniece and she has been working hard on locating the grave with a view to us hopefully being able to erect a headstone or some other marker in his & his wife Kate's memory. One point of order from her though, Cavell should be pronounced with the 'E' emphasised due to the name being french in origin (she is very particular about it lol) 😁

[@wendiewakefield8364]

John George Jack Phillips, was a wireless operator on the titanic when it sank, he was from Godalming, there is a memorial to him at a family grave plot in the Knightingale Road in Farncome Surrey cemetery. Wondered if you would be interested in taking a look.

[@loppsy3891]

There is also a rather large memorial garden in Godalming in memory of Jack Phillips. A beautiful place. The little town also had a bar named after him with lots of information boards and photos of the Titanic and Jack inside.

I sponsored many of these Titanic graves on Find A Grave. The Titanic Historical Society has marked some graves. I know another hero of the Titanic will be getting one Jack Foley....because me and my group, The Silent Forgotten wanted to buy him one and reached out to the family...but somebody beat us to it. Cheers, Paul!

It's quite disgraceful that someone who played a part in such a pivotal event in history should be forgotten. The cemetery in that area looks awful😢

Hiya Paul, another good video from the series. Agree with what you said, I hope during his lifetime that George, after that terrible thing he that found peace and happiness. Sad there is no name shown on his grave, maybe, just maybe someone from the Titanic society will come forward and do something. R.I.P.

Was terrible how the relatives of those who died on the Titanic, a little while after they received a bill from White Star Lines, for 5 shillings and 4 pence to pay for the lost uniforms 😢

[@gilltagg3352]

I read about this and shocking how they was treated. Thank you for mentioning this fact.

[@Pellegrineanita]

Oh my god that is so cruel x

[@rivaest38]

Hi Paul, I echo the sentiment of other members, well done for tracking down survivors of the Titanic disaster and especially crew members. We hear about the wealthy passengers who lost their lives that night but seldom hear about the survivors, crew or passengers. I agree that the Titanic Society should be involved in installing a head stone. As there are edge stones around the grave, it is possible that there was once a head stone that either fell over for some reason or became dangerous and was removed. Maybe the Local Authority’s Cemeteries Division hold records to show exactly what the original memorial consisted of. Anyway, keep ‘em coming!

[@christinecavell-sibley7236]

Looking at the plan the cemetery have provided me, its just the blank piece of land.

[@margaretbuckley9309]

THANKS FOR THIS ONE PAUL VERY INTETESTING STORY INDEED POOR HENRY NO HEADSTONE NO FLOWERS NOT EVEN A CROSS TO MARK HIS GRAVE HOW SAD IS THAT GLADHE HAD SOME KIND OF LIFE AFTERWORDS PITY HE HAD NO CHILDREN MAYBE THATS WHY THE GRAVE LOOKS UNCARED FOR ANYWAY LOOK AFTER YOURSELF PAUL R I P HENRY 🙏🥀

Paul you always do people proud in your honouring of those poor souls who lost their lives on that after night 6th April 1912 god rest all those souls who die in that ship and those who saved lives like the lifeguards etc who managed to try and save as many people as possible with their heart and souls. in todays world is self self first last and in the middle . forgetting about yesteryear .

[@geoffpoole483]

What happened that night doesn't bear thinking about. There are one or two other nautical tragedies worth looking into. One is the HMS Albion, whose launch at London's docks resulted in the deaths of 38 spectators. Another is the Victoria and Camperdown disaster which happened in the Mediterranean. That one was largely due to the commanding officer making what's generally known as a cock-up.
