SS Majestic, White Star Line 1890
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

On 25 June 1890 my grandmother, Emma L Hasell, 24 years old, left her life as a household servant and sailed on the Majestic for New York where she joined her fiance, William Henry Pickering, formerly of Silverdale and Tunbridge Wells. She stayed in the YWCA until she found work. They married in November 1891.

Ship belonged to White Star Line (taken over by Cunard in 1930's). My great uncle was officer in this ship a decade later.
