    • Dear Robin,
      My grandfather, John Pattison Bruce, was your Great Grandfather’s business partner. I have a photo of Joseph Friedenstein his wife and daughter on a beach holiday, his letter from New York before he sailed and letters send by my grandfather to my grandmother in Sheffield from Queenstown, now Cobh, Eire where he went to look for him among the bodies recovered from the sea. Get in touch? Dr Robert Bruce-Chwatt (find me using Google) London

  1. I have a letter from him sent to my grandfather just before he sailed on the Lusitania. I wrote an article on it in Picture Postcard Monthly some years ago.
